How to do your screencast
please add your suggestions on how you did your screencast. Please try to use and suggest Free Software.

Linux

 * Easist way: recordmydesktop (on Mandriva, install with 'urpmi gtk-recordmydesktop')
 * Ubuntu discussion over screencast
 * Ubuntu screencast how to
 * vnc2swf to record a flash movie (short vnc2swf usage tutorial)

Mac

 * Chris Schmidt experience on Os X

Windows

 * Taksi - Desktop Screenshot, Video Capture/Recorder - worked well for capturing OpenGL output (I used it to record from VTerrain's Enviro viewer)

Where to publish your screencast
Actually main free video hosting are using a strong dowsampling that does not allow a good video quality to present screencast.

Then you'll need to find your own web hosting or a free one that can host just the video without resampling.

Hosting Portals
There are specialized hosting services for tutorials:


 * ShowMeDo!
 * Learn2Use (German)

Suggestions

 * What about distribution the videos with a bittorrent-style distribution? Maybe OSGeo could provide the infrastructure for this?

GIS- and Geo-related Podcasts
Some suggestions from the hivemind (note these are not necessarily open source specific):


 * Directions Magazine http://www.directionsmag.com/ offers regular podcasts. They occasionally have open source related content by Adena Schutzberg (Directions staff) and others.


 * http://www.opengeodata.org/?cat=13


 * http://hobu.biz/category/podcast/ (note: links seem to be dead as of 15 Jan '08)


 * IT Conversations has a lot of good content, http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/index.html
