BrowserCast is an IPython Notebook plugin which allows IPython Notebook notebooks to be set to audio, creating a screencast-style presentation in the browser - a browser cast.

Status: BrowserCast is under active development, and should work well enough that you can use it to create useful presentations! It is currently implemented as a bookmarklet instead of a “real” Notebook plugin, but that will change soon. To give it a try, see: http://wolever.github.io/browsercast/

FAQ

Q: What about recording audio in the browser too?
A: Unfortunately the APIs aren’t great at the moment, and Audacity is a very good tool for creating and editing audio.
Q: Can people watching a browsercast interact with the IPython notebook?
A: In theory they can, but there are some technical challenges that make it unlikely to be properly supported.
