Daily Diigo Snips and Comments: Screencast-o-Matic

More education. Less schooliness.

Create screencasts online. Java-based. Still in beta, but a great tool. Resolution much higher than what I’ve been able to achieve with SnapzPro on my Mac. And yes, it’s cross-platform! So far, you can’t embed, though you can download as Quicktime, upload to Google Video or YouTube, etc, and embed from there, I guess–which might cause the same fuzzy resolution I’ve been fighting with SnapzPro all along. iShowU, by the way, is a new Mac screencast software–about USD $20–that is far superior to SnapzPro, if you want to buy software for your Mac.

Screencast-o-matic seems eager to add features and improve its service, so it’s definitely something to watch. Thanks to Jeff Utecht and Chris Craft for the tip.
