Just something I put together quickly:<p>https://webcast.browserprotect.me/<p>I made this in one day, now I'm wondering if It's interesting enough to make it a real product (Add new features like setting the size, zoom, annotations, fix bugs, export, voice-over, etc..)<p>Here is an example screencast I just did: https://webcast.browserprotect.me/view/2764aa94dcd855959819fd91881f0882baa61a0e-44646<p>Do you consider this a viable product? I'm thinking about offering it for free and then add some premium features.
Definitely a sweet idea and I can see some great use cases for onboarding new users to a site by demoing functionality. Really like how it just gets to work and outputs the vid without making me make any decisions. I'd love to see a gif output (maybe that could be one of your premium features :)<p>EDIT: Just cross-posted to PH. <a href="http://www.producthunt.com/posts/websitecast" rel="nofollow">http://www.producthunt.com/posts/websitecast</a>
A friend of mine is building something very similar, pitched at creating interactive guides for customer support. Might be worth looking at.<p>There's a demo guide here:

I've been wanting something like this to exist - specifically for weird browser compatibility issues or for submitting bugs. There's been a few times where I've encountered a bug, sent a message about it to someone on Twitter, and wished I could send a quick Snapchat/Vine of the issue to them. This would be much better than numerous screenshots. It shows exactly how I produced the bug.<p>This, hopefully, could allow me to do just that.
I built something similar. Though you need to sign up to use it<p><a href="http://www.castbin.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.castbin.com/</a><p>Great for an effort for a day though. Apparently I don't see mouse movements in playback.
Nifty idea, but my page [<a href="http://roberttomsons.bplaced.net/" rel="nofollow">http://roberttomsons.bplaced.net/</a>] get a "Cannot GET /error/notsupported" error.
It seems like a neat idea, but I just get a blank rectangle where the site to record is supposed to show up. Nothing in the console; using latest Chrome on latest OS X.
I was looking for something like this today.<p>This would be great for on-boarding tutorials, troubleshooting, etc..<p>If you could add text bubbles (similar to Youtube) that would be superb :)
