I personally use and recommend LICEcap.

• Great interface: select a region of the screen and set the frame rate and destination for the gif.
• No time limit on length of gif.
• OS X and Windows (can use Wine for Linux).

LICEcap also allows some further gif customisation, including adding title frame with custom duration to the gif, setting a pause hotkey and repeat count (as opposed to the default infinite repeat).
