VoiceThread is a rather unusual type of web application. It is a multimedia collaborative slide show. It is entirely web-based, that is, you do not have to download nor install anything on your computer in order to use this tool.
How does it work? First of all, you must upload to VoiceThread’s servers the files you wish to add to your slide show. Here you will notice one of the advantages of this online app: unlike other slide show tools which only let you make use of documents of a visual nature (i. e., images and videos), this one allows you to make us of several different file types, such as .doc and .pdf. Besides, if you really want to use only images for your slide show, you can use VoiceThread’s import tool to transfer photos from your Flickr account to your multimedia presentation.
After creating your multimedia slide show, you will be able to share it with other people, like your friends, relatives or co-workers. These people will not only browse through your presentation’s content, but also have the ability to leave comments on your work.
VoiceThread
There are five different ways to leave a comment on a slide show created with this web app: with an audio file, via telephone, with a Web cam, using text or with a microphone. You do not have to worry about impolite or otherwise inappropriate comments though: you will have the ability to moderate all comments, that is, you will control which comments are visible or not. This will give you full protection against cyberbullies and spammers.
In case you need to make your multimedia slide shows available on other Web sites, you can use VoiceThread’s embedding feature. All it will require from you will be a simple copy and paste procedure.
VoiceThread is a good online tool for those looking for an effective way to create and share collaborative presentations.
