[ATTW-L] Open source/free Screen Recorder Software

[Chalice Randazzo]

Hi there--

Some of my grad students have used Silverback software for UX. I've never
used it in my UX courses, but they used it in their undergrad. They tell me
that it's cheap (maybe free, although I think the free version leaves a
watermark), and it seems to have a reasonable learning curve.

Good luck!
