[Sigia-l] Screencasting clickable wireframes

Hey all,I'm working on a large project in a remote team, so yesterday I
tried a new technique: I made a clickable wireframe, and then walked through
it in a screencast, clicking around as a user, at certain points explaining
design decisions etc... Then I shared the screencast with my colleagues. I
made 2 screencasts, 1 was 4 minutes, 1 was 1 minute long.

Interesting about this experience:

   - 3 times I did the screencast, and then realized places where I could
   improve the wireframes so I redid them. So it's a great feedback mechanism
   for yourself.
   - My remote colleagues seem to love it so far. I hope it can increase
   communication & shared understanding in the team.
   - I found a really good workflow (will post about it later) so doing the
   screencasts takes about no time whatsoever.

Thoughts? Has anyone else used this method?

Cheers,
Peter
