ScreenToaster.com Review
I recently stumbled upon www.screentoaster.com which is a new site that will record your screen via a Javascript function. I signed up for a beta test of this site yesterday and got to try out the online screen recorder today.
I can say that this is a brilliant idea that works really well and is handy for me. ScreenToaster allows you to screencast from anyplace that has an internet connection. Not only does the website allow you to save the screencast instantly, but it also automatically publishes the file as a flash video. Flash video is the best because it’s cross platform and degenerates nicely (older computers can usually display the videos without errors).
You can record the entire desktop or just an area very easily. Also, it’s nice to know you don’t have to have 3 different programs for each OS if you want to record your screen. Like some screencasters, ScreenToaster doesn’t slow down your graphical display as much. I don’t know how it really works, but it’s amazing and I really like this online screen recorder.
