Record your screen ONLINE

Problem: You are working in an Internet cafe where you don’t have permission to install new software on the computer so how do you capture a video of your desktop screen activity?



Enter ScreenToaster, it’s a free web based screencasting tool that requires no installation and can record a movie of your full desktop screen (or just a rectangular portion) in few clicks.
Screen Toaster is a screen recorder cum screencast hosting service – when you are done recording, the video is uploaded online automatically and becomes immediately available for sharing via email or for embedding on other sites.
And since Screen Toaster is written as Java web applet, it will work on pretty much every OS including Windows, Mac and Linux machines that have the Java runtime.
Screencast-o-matic is another similar online screencasting app but what you may like more about Screen Toaster is that it renders videos as streaming Flash so it becomes easy to embed screencasts in web pages vis-a-vis Java embeds.
The downside – Screen Toaster doesn’t record audio and there’s no option to export output videos as QuickTime movies – these facilities are available in Screencast-o-Matic!
screenr is another recording site
to use screenr use he following steps
1) Go to screenr You should see a yellow button that says "Record your screencast now!"

2) After you have clicked it, it will ask you to run a java applet. Run it. Don't worry, it's not a driveby ;).

3) Adjust the dimensions of the box until you get your desired screen size. When you are ready to record click the red record . Then, a red box will indicate that you are recording.

4) When you are finished recording, press the DONE button just a little right from the original record button.

Notes: You can only record up to 5 minutes of footage, you also MUST have a twitter account.

I hope this will benefit some of you. Enjoy!
