Screenr: Instant Screencasts for Twitter

By Frederic Lardinois / August 18, 2009 10:12 AM / View Comments

screenr_logo_aug09.pngWe have seen our fair share of screencasting tools, but we immediately liked Screenr when we first saw it a few days ago. Screenr, which just launched today, lets you record screencasts of up to 5 minutes in length and stands out because of how easy it is to use. Just enter your Twitter credentials and press 'record.' Screenr runs inside your browser, so you don't need to install any software. Once you finish your recording, you can immediately send your video directly to your Twitter followers from within the application.

Jing's Latest Upgrade Finally Integrates Webcam

By Sarah Perez / June 2, 2009 10:49 AM / View Comments

Jing has consistently been one of our favorite screenshot and screencasting tools here at ReadWriteWeb (especially among the Windows users). With one simple tool, you can take screenshots or record videos and save them to your computer or upload them to online services like flickr, YouTube, and TechSmith's own Screencast.com.

Today, with the launch of Jing 2.1, both Jing and Jing Pro users are getting a bevy of new features which makes the little app we can't live without just that much better.

screentoaster_logo_jan09.pngScreenToaster is an easy to use screencasting application that lives in your browser. When we first reviewed it, it was still in private beta, but today, the company has started its public beta test and added enough new features to make it a viable competitor to Jing, one of our favorite screencasting tools. Besides adding new features, ScreenToaster has also retooled its video portal, which, as Amit Agarwal notes, now looks a lot like a YouTube for screencasts.

jing_logo_jan09.pngJing, one of our favorite free screenshot and screencasting tools, just received a major update. Besides adding a new look and feel, TechSmith, Jing's parent company, also announced a new Pro version of Jing, which, for $14.95 a year, allows users to record their screencasts in HD H.264 video, directly upload them to YouTube, and remove the Jing logos that appear at the beginning and end of videos produced with the free version of Jing.

ScreenToaster Makes Screencasting Easy

By Frederic Lardinois / November 13, 2008 11:45 AM

screentoaster_logo.pngAs you may have realized by now, we are big fans of screencasts here at ReadWriteWeb, and every time a new tool comes along that makes screencasting easier and more accessible, we can't help but give it a try. The latest screencasting tool to come across our desks is ScreenToaster, which, unlike most of its competitors, runs directly from your browser. While its functionality is limited compared to fully featured screencasting suites like Camtasia Studio or ScreenFlow, ScreenToaster turns out to be a great little tool if you want to create a short demo video or tutorial.

New Video Explains the Basics of Data Portability

By Marshall Kirkpatrick / January 15, 2008 7:56 AM

We've been writing a lot about data portability here lately, and specifically the DataPortability.org Work Group. High level members of Google and Facebook staff joined the group a week ago yesterday, key people from LinkedIn, SixApart, Flickr and Twitter joined two days after that, the new Mozilla CEO told us last night that his organization is looking closely and will likely join the group.

That's all well and good but when does the rubber hit the road? Where's the beef and what are we waiting for?
