I'd like to make a presentation on my computer that records sounds and shows all the necessary mouse-clicks, and any typing I do in a window or a form and record the results into some sort of file for playback later.
It doesn't matter if the file is MPG or AVI as long as the file can be played back in Windows Media Player.
What sort of application would anyone suggest to do this? I've seen a number of web casts that do this, but it never dawned on me what sort of software that would be useful in doing this.
You should try Camtasia. It's easy to use (I used it before) and it can export to AVI, Flash and Windows media
CamStudio - it's free and open source
I would suggest for CamStudio as it is free and open source software.
NOTE Camstudio reportedly contains malware
You can try Microsoft Office Live.
Its very easy to use.
I recommend PresentationTube, a new way for recording and sharing video presentations. Free and easy to learn. http://presentationtube.com/
This doesn't meet your exact usecase. At all. BUT!
Give Presentious a try. For example: http://presentio.us/view/p1tcHs
There's nothing to install and it's super simple.

I'm looking for a VR solution (presumably software for an Oculus or Vive device) that presents 2 to 4 high-resolution development displays. The main requirement is that it provides all the functionality a software developer needs for part-time use.
Although I welcome you to include your favorite solution and note its benefits, as StackOverflow is not for product comparison any solution will answer my question.
It's OK if this isn't suitable for full work-week use, such as concerns about eyestrain from 8 hours of straight use (although severe eyestrain after short use would make it unusable), but it's not OK if I lose key currently-standard functionality commonly used by most developers, such as ability to run multiple displays and snap an IDE to fill one and a browser to fill another, ability to have a high resolution or high virtual resolution, poor text quality, or ability to use a debugger.
I'd prefer one that I can use with a laptop as a mobile solution outside (yes, I know, the headset ruins the beach), but it isn't required.
Does something like that exist?
Check out Virtual Desktop. The resolution of the Rift & Vive is still a bit low to use this for coding & development but it's got a lot of potential!

I have a list of URLs and I would like to capture the related sites as they would display in a standard view port for a given resolution (say 1024x768).
Does anyone know of a tool/web service/script that does just that?
Any standard PHP methods or libraries I could build on alternatively?
To give you an idea what I intend to use these images for: they should feed into a website, my own little place to collect domain names going to waste.
Web service: Browshot with the PHP library.
Tools: PhantomJS
I was wasting most of the day searching for a simple solution and finally found one. Ann Smarty wrote this article (http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/take-multiple-screenshots-bulk-firefox/) about the free Firefox plugin Grab Them All, which makes it immensely easy to batch-generate snapshots to a specified size from a text file list of source URLs. Easy peasy, no coding necessary, other than maybe to change saved filenames. (There's a setting that uses a safe version of the supplied URL string, with unsafe characters changed to the underscore character.)

I want to develop a plagiarism checker for checking several source codes but I couldn't find any proper source code or even a resource to get an idea about it.
I have checked the Boss2 which is useless. they claim that they use Sherlock module for detecting plagiarism but it seems there is no such tools included in boss2.
if any open source detection tool is available for checking source code please let me know.
regards
I'm aware of open-source plagiarism detectors for text (e.g., WCopyFind), but not code.
I couldn't find... even a resource to get an idea about it.
The authors of the excellent closed-source tool MOSS have published a helpful paper about the technology.
I know the question is old, but I did land here from a google.
Sherlock is an open source plagiarism detector. Sherlock's home page is here
I wrote SimiCheck, and you are welcome to use it. If you are interested in an API, I could probably write one very quickly.
I wrote the original algorithm as part of the CrowdGrader peer-grading tool, but then I decided to make the comparison tools available independently.
SimiCheck can handle code, Word (.docx), html, pdf, text, ..., as well as .zip, .tar, .gz, .tgz, and some more formats, and can deal with variable renaming, code moves, code across multiple files, etc.

What are the best free uml drawing tools?
All the ones I have found require membership payments and only offer limited functionality based to public users on a trial basis...rubbish!
For my (very simple) needs I used ArgoUML. I'm not an expert about, but I found it enough easy to use. It's open source and, on the web page, you can find a good user guide.
Have a look at StarUML ( http://staruml.sourceforge.net/en/ )
It's free, open source, and incredibly fully featured.
For a full list, check out the ones marked as Open Source here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unified_Modeling_Language_tools
But I'd really recommend StarUML!
For my first two software engineering courses, I used the stand alone version of UMLet, but it is just for diagrams. It exports to standard graphics, or pdf. They also have an eclipse plugin version, but I never used it.
For a no frill drawing tool, I find Google Docs (drawings) pretty good. Note that printing works better under Mozilla than Chrome, strangely enough. In Chrome, I cannot get dashed lines to print.
Try UMLet. Supports Eclipse IDE.

I need to develop an interior designing software :)
Much like a virtual room designing software.
There will be pre-designed 3D objects and they can dragged on to the room. You can change the room size etc... Much like a conventional home designing software :) After the room is designed i should be able to to make the user walk through it...
I know that is a lot of requirements...
But are there any open source IDE's/API's/Engines that can i use to achieve similar results?
What you need to use depends on the level of realism you want to achieve.
For a simple(ish) start, try Google Sketchup - there is a vast array of samples online: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/
For something more powerful (and complicated to use), try Blender
You'll then need to use an API to render and allow user movement - for this, take a look at JMonkeyEngine
FYI - There is a more complete list of modeling apps on the jMonkeyEngine site.
It's not really programming related, but look at Google SketchUp. It also has a powerful SDK which you can use.
For SDK search for '3d scenegraph' in google. Some good ones are Ogre3d, Irrlicht and OpenSceneGraph. If you are planning on a web based solution you can look at several WebGL based scenegraphs, SceneJS and Google O3D are easy to get started with.
