New Screen Capture Tool… No Download Required
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008French company, Sarl has released a private beta version of its screen capture service, ScreenToaster.
ScreenToaster allows you to capture and make Flash videos of activities on the screen without having to download and run any software. According to TechCrunch’s Michael Arrington:
“the ease of use is just awesome. It takes literally seconds to create and publish a screencast. I’ve done a lot of these, and I know what a pain they are with client software, editing and uploading.”
That’s a pretty glowing review. However, one ‘glaring omission’ is the absence of the ability to record audio. Apparently, Sarl is aiming to add audio, subtitles and other features before launch.
ScreenToaster goes up against Screencast-O-Matic - another screen capture service with similar functionality (which also allows the export of videos and audio recording), not to mention the various software solutions, most notably Camtasia.
