JING: ScreenCapture



JING is a free software that can record what you do on the screen and your voice(video, picture,text,cursor). After recording, you can download it into your computer or post it in the internet. You will get a URL and simply send it to others via mail, then the receiver can see your recording. 


You can download the software here: http://www.techsmith.com/jing/
