Screencasts

Jon Udell has blogged recently about screencasting. The term describes movies of software ... "screen video, along with voiceover, [that] can produce compelling software demonstrations".

Some useful bookmarks on the subject:
Jon's explanation of the term.
How to make screencasts yourself [Windows Media, QuickTime, Flash]
A Walking Tour of Keene, NH -- Jon's compelling demo of screencasting using Google Maps
Download Windows Media Encoder, a free screencast tool from Microsoft.
Why Can't Visual Studio Do This? ... a screencast displaying Eclipse's superior features for Java development.

I have an extra headset at work ... I think I'm going to bring it home and give Windows Media Encoder a try.

  • I really enjoyed the Eclipse demo (er... Screencast). Since I am not much on Java and haven't had the time to muck around in there much, it was great getting to see it properly demostrated.

    As a side note, I watched it on my Linux (Ubuntu) box in the basement (over the wireless bridge).
