CamStudio is an open source (free!) program that allows users to record video of what is happening on their computer screen. Videos are saved in .AVI format, but they can easily be converted to Flash (SWF) files.In addition to video, CamStudio captures audio from the computer, so descriptions and commentary can easily be added to completed productions.
Recently, I did a post on our bookstore style categories and used CamStudio to record a video that I uploaded to YouTube. So far, it hasn't generated much interest, but perhaps a video on basic computer instruction would. Right now, our computer classes are limited by the amount of computers we own and seating space. CamStudio offers the ability to overcome those obstacles and allow patrons to access our classes from home.
