SplashCast

Great media site that allows the user to create Flash media for webpage presentations. Site allows the user to import video, pictures, and audio into the presentation. In addition, users can create their own audio with the use of a microphone. For instructions on how to insert into a webpage see instructions here.

Box.net

This is a great way to share work and collaborate on-line in groups or access information from a computer with nothing more than an Internet connection. Box is the on-line version of the Flash drives or Pen drives as they are commonly called. The site is free and allows the member up to 1G or storage at any one time. You have 10G of bandwith available as a free member per month for uploading and downloading information. For instruction on how to sign-up and up this site click here!

Google docs and spread sheets

An outstanding free service for doing on-line word documents and spreadsheets. You'll find Google docs performs some very basic word processing functions very well without every buying a program. Found this site to be very useful in collaborating on-line. Click on the Google docs and spreadsheets text above to see the services google offers.

Eye Spot

Eyespot is similar to Splashcast in that you can create a Flash video out of pictures, text, and video. However, eyespot has a lot of basic video editing functionality that you typically find in Windows MovieMaker with less options, of course. Eyespot gives you the opportunity to create a video with transitions, text, and adding audio. Unlike Splashcast, your video can be published without making it public or giving people other than your intended audience the option to view it. As a free member, you can upload up to 7 videos at a time with a file size of 100MB each. For instructions on how to create a movie click here!
