Creating a Slide Show Using SlideRoll

Do you want an easy way to create a slide show with photos? There is a web program that will allow you to upload a limited amount of photos for free and it creates a slide show. You can then grab the code and embed into your web course, blog, ePortfolio, or other web page. I created one in about 5 minutes using photos I took of my nieces and grandson over the week-end. It also has an application to do the same thing with video.
Here is a sample (sorry the example is not "education" worthy--but as a grandma, I think it is great.)



Go to http://www.slideroll.com/ to see the application. Since it is all web-based, it doesn't matter what platform of computer you are using. Web 2.0 technology is great.
