What's best for web recordings?

[street music]

I still consider myself to be a intermediate player and not the best on some computer programs. I have wanted to record my guitar to put sound clips on this site so some of you can hear my GFS p90 pickups put I still haven't learned the trick or program s to do that with. I have a mic to plug up to my computer that I hope will work, I have some patch chords that I hope can be used if need be.
I'm asking for assistance with this and keep it on the learning curbe please.

Check out Audacity here http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ I don't know if it's the best, but it is free and does all I need it to do. I just got a 1/4" female to 1/8" male adapter and plugged my amp (or one of my amp sim pedals) into the line in on my soundcard.

Yeah, Audacity is good. You can the export the recording as mp3 file, but I think you need the lame encoder. Here's a video tutorial - http://www.truveo.com/Audacity-Tutorial-Music-Recording/id/894548012

Thank you I'll try this during the weekend, I have Audacity downloaded but haven't been able to do a lot with as of yet. I'll work harder at it.
