Screencasting

[Tags: web design, new media]. A word for the day: "A screencast is a digital recording of computer screen output, often containing audio narration," says Wikipedia. "The term was coined by columnist Jon Udell in 2004 in an article [1] describing the benefits of using the technique as a way to show other users applications he found interesting. Since then, the term has gained widespread use, and the use of screencasts has itself become more popular."
