Project description: We wanted to solve the problem of capturing gifs quickly and easily. Existing solutions were complicated and yucky: you need the video source file, photoshop, or some specialized software, or a limited Youtube-to-gif service like Gifsoup.com. You ran into codec issues, it took a while, you needed lots of experience, etc.
We made it easier by giving the user a floating capture window which essentially grabs frames from whatever's underneath. It basically takes screenshots. Naturally, everyone wants to share the gif they created, so we threw in a 1-click process to upload that gif to our server.
