Quickcast.io: a nifty Mac app that lets you create short shareable screencast videos and animated gifs

Quickcast.io is a free open source Mac app that lets you create 3 minute screencasts videos.

Simply download, install, click the QuickCast logo in your toolbar and hit record. After a 5 second count down you’ll be screencasting away. The Quickcast icon will give you an idea of how long you have left.

Here’s a quick example of a Quickcast Screencast in action:
