I've never used it myself, but I hear lots about jing. It's available for Windows and Mac. Free version is limited to 5 minutes of recording.

That's not cross-platform... Cross platform means it will run on any operating system which runs a certain programming language such as Python, Ruby, Java, etc. In this case, it's Java, which means that any operating system that supports java will be able to run it. – BloodPhilia May 21 '10 at 13:39
jing adds its own adv. @ the end of recording in free version of it – Jigar Joshi May 24 '10 at 4:01
