Screencasting Example


I chose the screencast tutorial on Rockmelt the new "Social Browser." Rockemelt allows you browse the web and stay logged on to your socail network sites. The person in the screencast is describing the what Rockmelt is used for and how you can stay in touch with your friends on Twitter, Facebook, and other social network sites. Rockemelt allows you to easily share links and post with Facebook friends and Twitter Followers. Rockemelt allows you openly chat by clicking on the the person's face in the side bar.

Screencast are better than written or verbal directions because you have the visual. If software has been updated you can view the difference in the screencast.  You can slow, stop, fast forward or rewind, when watching a screencast as well. I believe screencast are the best way to give instructions for new software.
