I looove the daily obsession. I look forward to it every day. If I don't get a chance to read all of obesessable's new stuff in a day, the Daily Obsession is how I get my fix on the high points.

For Windows there is CamStudio, which is a little interesting to learn, but works pretty well. Free I think. Also Wink, which saves to flash files only I think, it is more for a page by page screencast, you can add titles, not so much for video. Snagit is also pretty good.
