ScreenTwin

ScreenTwin is a tiny, neat application designed to help users create desktop videos showing whatever it is the user does on any machine. Whether you're trying to create tutorial movies or just want to share your ideas with the rest of the world, this application can help you achieve your goal without having to waste time or use more than one program to successfully create your material.

You're probably expecting this app to have some sort of menu or window to have everything configured. Don't. This app comes in a small package and leaves a small footprint. It starts minimized in your machine's tray. Double-click the icon in the tray to begin recording. You'll know because the icon will have turned green. Double-click once more to put an end to your recording session. Now, even though the app doesn't have a menu, there is a settings panel you can make use of to adjust some of the aspects that require a user's attention.

The settings panel, although small, offers the exact number of settings you'd expect. Decide if you want to record the whole screen or a certain area, giving the precise coordinates of the chosen spot. Select the audio device the app will use to record audio while capturing visual input. Decide on the quality of the resulting material. Lastly, choose the save spot or opt for directly streaming your session by adding an IP address and all the adjacent data.

ScreenTwin might not be the most powerful of the apps available out there to record desktops, yet its small footprint and simple attitude should attract those looking to get the job done as fast as possible, avoiding any serious headaches.
