Screencast software for Linux Ubuntu

I use the screencast software Camtasia at my windows-hypnotized job. I looked for same kind of software for Linux Ubuntu and found this blog post Finally! Howto Screencast on Linux. The blogger says Wink gets more and more outdated and Istanbul is crashing on Ubuntu and he’s not either satisfied with xvidcap. Now, he suggets Recordmydesktop instead. Ubuntonista suggests ffmpeg in his blogpost. Here is a list of screen cast software for different OS at Wikipedia. Readers, what’s your experience of screencasting with Linux Ubuntu software?
