ScreenToaster is a no-hassle site with little-to-no learning curve. Once you create an account, you can immediately start recording video and audio - no download required. Simply select your video (record your entire desktop or just a piece of it), audio, and camera options (you can do more than screencast), hit record and you're off creating your masterpiece. If you opt to check the geek box you can also adjust playback speed, and in the future you'll be able record from a VNC server or adjust the bitrate.

When you're done recording, you can preview your video, adjust the preview image, add subtitles (cool!), upload to the site, and/or export it as an .avi file. After upload, you can share your video across social sites, grab the embed code to showcase it on your site, or just send a link to friends. ScreenToaster also lets you view and comment on other videos uploaded to the site.

We think ScreenToaster is an excellent solution that brings advanced screencasting options to all levels of computer users. Given that it works with Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux, it's a safe option to recommend to clients, friends, and family members.
