The advantage of HTML (and to some extent also JavaScript and flash)
is that NO Client installation is necessary. With screencasting, the
authors or moderators need anyway to install an additional software.
That is the point. Whether it is a 5,5 MB browser (plus an easy
installable extension) or a just a standalone application, it's about
the same hassle for the user (I guess not everybody agrees with me on
that). So I prefer the extension, because my target audience for
screenkasting authors  are firefox users (Firefox is the most used
browser for techsavy geeks), so it's easier for them to install and
easier for me to develop.

I am open to hear other opinions ..
