Screenr: Presentation Sharing

Did you ever want to record everything you do on your personal computer with audio? If that is something you've done in the past, then you probably had to pay $10 - $50 for a software solution that didn't quite do what you wanted it to do. Screenr is not only a free service, but it's fast, easy, powerful, and can be used on your Web Blox website. Record your computer screen in multiple sizes, including full screen. Upload it to your other screencasts. Share it with the world with their embed codes. Screenr website >
