Skiblz Cam

Description

The only thing worse than encountering a broken website is the further indignity of having to explain to someone what you're seeing so that you can get it fixed.

Skiblz Cam is a screen recording tool that's built for anyone who's ever wished there was an easier way to report bugs. Requires no additional software. Completely self contained and functional.

Skiblz Cam lets you record video and save it without ever leaving your browser. Unlike most screen recorders, Skiblz Cam is built on modern HTML5 technology and does not rely on antiquated technologies like Java or Flash. This means it starts up instantly and doesn't expose you to dangerous security holes.

Note: Skiblz Cam does not record audio. If you want to record your screen and audio try Google Hangouts by following these directions: http://www.alicekeeler.com/teachertech/2013/07/05/screencasting-on-a-chromebook/
