Animoto
Animoto allows web users to create their own photo presentations, set to music. Once photos have been uploaded, you can choose a preloaded music track or upload your own mp3.
Pros:
- Basic access for creating slideshows is free.
- Everything is automated making it easy to use.
- You have the option to upload your own music.
- Completed videos can easily be uploaded to services such as YouTube.
Cons:
- Free access will only create up to a 30-second video.
- To create a longer video costs $3 per video, or an all access pass can be purchased for $30 per year.
- You do not have control over how many of your photos will be displayed, how quickly they will displayed, how quickly they will be mixed and which methods will be used. This is all automatically done by the Animoto mixing algorithms.
Glogster
Glogster is a tool used to create online posters. These posters can combine audio, video, text, and graphics to create interactive posters.
Pros:

- Can benefit both students and teachers.
- “Glogs” can be easily posted onto webpages or plogs.
- Users can log on from any computer with internet access to continue their work.
- It is easy to embed content from other places.
Cons:
