Thing 19

OK, I have been working on Thing 19 for a total of 7 hours, and cannot get my screencast to upload. I used Screenr and made a first screencast--(not too bad)--but every time I tried to upload it I got a message back that said "Whoops, having trouble uploading right now, try again later." Well, I tried for more than 3 hours on my school computer with the same message. When I tried to make a second screencast (thinking that there might be a problem with my original attempt,) my original version kept popping up--I finally realized I had to delete the first one before I could attempt a second. After completing the second screencast--(much improved over the first one,)--I got the same message about having problems uploading my screencast. I tried every 10 minutes or so on my school computer until 8:00 pm. Earlier, I went to the other free recording sites, but the tutorials were over my head, and the attempt I made on Screencast-o-matic did not upload either. Every time I re-signed in to Twitter, my screencast was still there on Screenr, so I assumed that I could log in on my home computer and try uploading from there.

However, when I logged in to Screenr here at home, my screencast was not there. I am moving on to Thing 20 (actually already started 20 and 21,) and will make another attempt on my school computer tomorrow to upload--assuming that my screencast is still on that computer. This Thing was actually pretty easy, and I enjoyed recording. But the technical problems turned this Thing into a real bummer.
