LibCasting

While waiting for Techsmith to produce a Mac version of Camtasia, Mac users have more limited choices for screencasting software. But at least those choices are expanding. See, for example, a recent comparison of eight options at the TUAW Faceoff: Screencasting. The most advanced option reviewed, ScreenFlow from Vara Software has recently been upgraded to version 1.1.

While I cannot test this, lacking ready access to a Mac (and note that ScreenFlow requires one Leopard), based on its own screencasts, it has some interesting editing features and seems to take good screen video and audio. For general library screencasts, the lack of Flash output and the inability to easily add text call outs (as noted by Paul) are concerns.
