After hearing people talking through their game jam, one of the things I noticed was that it was all descriptive while we all react best to images - and we all know everyone is too busy jamming to actually be taking screenshots of process, so I think it would be great if we all got in a habit of using automatic screenshot programs to just get a bunch down as we worked. Maybe every 5 minutes or 10 or so.
It would by itself make a great stop-motion video, and you'll easily have stuff to pull for when you're talking about the process.
I've tried two softwares now, both of them had one niggle - they only saved one of two screens... And I'm used to using the right (secondary) for making stuff... @_@ it's an issue but a minor one.

My mind always wonders when I look at slides filled with wall-of-text. I don't know if it's because I'm a visual kinda person.
