GeorgeB your question how making a video on my computer screen

I use a computer system called Ubuntu that I help run. Its a open source OS system and I use another open source program called "recordmydesktop" that was made for a Ubuntu system. Its a simple screen capture program and there are some out there for Window computers as well.



Looking on Google for a open source Windows screen capture should be simple fast and FREE

Not to sound dumb, but by "help run" you mean you are one of the creators/founders for it, or just a programmer? Just curious is all.

Thanks for letting me know. I tried Ubuntu when it was first released, but then gave up on it, as I was more used to windows lol.

However, speaking of Ubuntu, I just reinstalled this, this morning, so if something ever happened to Windows, I have a backup, in a way.

I will check into the screen capture programs, thanks for the tip.

One last question, how did you add your voice to it all? I am guessing with a mic or something, but never hurts to ask.

Thanks again!

Anytime an Yes I use a mic on the computer that the screen recorder will pick up.

Ubuntu is ran by "teams" each team has a job. I am owner/leader for the north east Texas team (LoCo) an I am part of many other teams as well. So no I am not a founder...I am just one of the many nerds who spend way to much time on helping to build a great system one way or another.

On a side note since Ubuntu 9.04 and then more so after the builds of 9.10 an up...ubuntu has become a more user friendly system and you can move over from windows into ubuntu with a small learn curve. Ubuntu is more stable and has little to no virus out there as all virus are made for Window systems not a Linux based system. The GUI is far more powerful and can do some awesome things. 10.10 with Compiz is freaking awesome but we have moved to a new setup in 11.04 that I am not as happy about but they are working on it an it COULD turn into a very hot GUI setup.

Yeah, trying to find a nice way to switch between the two without needing to re start the pc.
