CamStudio This is another alternative program for screencasting. The downfall is that it is only usable for Windows. Some features are the ability to change your voice and also online help and support.
Wink This program contains many different tools such as different languages, audio, cross programs, smart tools and good web quality.
Personal Experience
I tried the screencast program. It was interesting to play around with, but also kind of confusing because I had no given direction for some kind of assignment. I think that it could be a really good tool for future presentations in classes and work. I only used the program to show my desktop and things such as that. I didn't attemp to add video or images. I only tried one of the programs because it seemed a bit excessive to download 3 different types of the same thing just to try for fun.
