Use this Chrome extension for the following:
- While doing a screencast recording, this will clearly show where your mouse cursor is and where you click on the page. This can be useful for doing webapp tutorials.
- While doing an online presentation, this can help so that your audience can clearly see where your mouse cursor is.
- If you use Chromecast, this can highlight your mouse cursor to make it easier to spot.
Note: My favorite software for for recording gif screencasts is ShareX (https://getsharex.com/) for Windows and LICEcap (http://www.cockos.com/licecap/) for Linux (must use Wine to install LICEcap in Linux).
