Betsy Weber on the Techsmith Visual Lounge Blog posts about Cueprompter.com, a website that allows you to type or paste in a whack of text, and then scrolls it back at you just as a teleprompter would. She suggests it would work well for screencasting, but I think that’s only true if you have a dual-monitor setup, otherwise wouldn’t it show up on the screen you’re recording? I guess maybe if you’re recording after the initial capture. Regardless, it works as advertised, and hey, maybe would serve well for those of you giving speeches from your laptop…?

Hi Paul,
Sorry – I didn’t clarify any of that. I do usually run dual monitors unless I’m on the road. And, often, I don’t record the whole screen. So, even if I’m recording with only one monitor, I still have room for a ‘staging area’ where I can run a teleprompter or have notes.
But, yes, agreed – dual monitors is ideal.

You should check out EasyPrompter – http://www.easyprompter.com
Many more features, has an offline mode, is really simple to use and has keyboard/mouse support (As well as full screen / dual screen support with a separate controller window).
Check it out – it’s really awesome.
Here’s another good one, seems much better with easy reversing without any special font downloads. http://www.prompter.tv Teleprompter
