You may have heard the news last week that Articulate launched a new screencasting tool called Screenr. It is a free web-based tool that lets you create screencasts without installing any software. You can even watch the screencasts back at HD-quality and they look great. Screenr gives you multiple ways to use your screencasts.

If you are having trouble with something or want to learn a new topic, do you gravitate toward a great online video or a wordy blog post? Rather than just create a blog post or tutorial on a subject, we also create videos and post them on YouTube. You may already have an entire library of tutorials on your website or blog.

For example, in many cases, it’s faster to take a screenshot and use tools such as annotations, arrows, or highlights to indicate what someone needs to do rather than explain using text. When teaching someone how to complete an action or guide them through a process, it’s likely much quicker to record a screencast than write out each step.

One Acrobat.com service I thought about was having a light-weight version of Adobe Captivate as part of Acrobat.com that would enable customers to do simple screen recordings or even software simulations, that could be shared and posted everywhere, on YouTube for example, or even right on Acrobat.com somehow. So much for that.
