"Camtasia. If you scroll down, in the comments Jeff says:


Please, tell what tool you did use to
make that kind of gif-based animated demo ?


In this case, it's Camtasia, but I've
used gif-gif-gif before for similar
effects. Check out the Donation Coder
roundup of screencasting tools for
more options:

"When I have done this in the past, I always would do it in a two stage process. The easiest way to do this is use an application that records the video you want to convert into a GIF and then the second part of the process is to convert the video into a GIF image.

There are good desktop/screen capture utils however I recommend either Capture Fox

Animake will convert an mpg video into a GIF file."
