screenr (online screencasting application)

Today I tested screenr (Articulate’s free online screencasting application linked to Twitter): http://screenr.com/

It’s easy to use, just click on Record and follow brief instructions. No software is needed to install. There’s a five minute limit, no editing options.
You need to have a Twitter account and when you produce the screencast it will automatically tweet about it (you can opt not to do this).
The screencast is produced in HD, this takes a little time (seemed like a minute or so for my minute-long screencast) – the resulting screencast is crystal clear.
Resulting screencast is given unique URL at screenr.com (can be linked to or embedded), can be downloaded as MP4, uploaded to YouTube or deleted.
Publishing to YouTube is simple – just enter your YouTube name and password to upload, then go to YouTube account to get URL.

My example: http://screenr.com/4Vs
When uploaded to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIL9srwhbqw  

One disadvantage is the screencasts you produce are public – however it seems you could opt not to tweet, download the MP4 file and then delete the screencast from screenr.com.

Came across it from: http://www.articulate.com/rapid-elearning/how-to-use-this-free-screencasting-tool-for-e-learning/
