Ask HN: How do you organize your Co.'s screencasts

3 points by masukomi 12y ago ↗ HN

We'd like to start making lots of short screencasts to help augment our documentation, but the question has come up of how to make them findable / searchable. Is there any good software for this? Do people just use wiki's to organize links to them? Is there any self-hosted YouTube-esque tool out there?

This SaaS and open source project just popped up on HN: http://quickcast.io/

Also check out http://www.kaltura.org/

If you just need video hosting and a robust player, look into Brightcove.

For internal things, we are a small team and find that Google Drive + Evernote helps us accomplish what we need. We store the .avi files in GD and then the link + keywords in Evernote.

masukomi, Our team has created Bitcast.io - a marketplace for screencasts. We're working with several companies to host their documentation screencasts.
