Video plus screen capture would be nice, but video of the presenter and a copy of their slides to follow along with works pretty damn well for me. As far as trying to combine the two and sleek up the experience, Columbia's SOA has a nice setup for this on their site (see http://www.columbia.edu/itc/soa/dmc/cory_arcangel/) for example). There are some glitches in the timing, though, and I'm just not sure it's worth the extra effort. Gabe PS In a similar vein, when I don't have separately available slides to follow along with, I find many of the Google TechTalks annoying. It's a lot of watching some not-terribly-handsome person refer to things I can't see. Having both video and slides is key.
