Jing and Skitch. It may be the first time you’ve come across these words, and if your first impulse is to reach for a dictionary you may be puzzled to learn that one is a Scottish exclamation of surprise, while the other is a portmanteau word formed from “skate” and “hitch” describing the act of grabbing a tow from the back fender of a passing car while riding on a skateboard or roller skates. All quite amusing, but “Jing” and “Skitch” are two brilliant web tools that have become indispensable since we discovered them.
