Apps for the 12 Days of Christmas - Slide.ly


Slide.ly reminds me a lot of Animoto and the application allows users to create a digital photo story using images from Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Picasa, etc.  Users can then take music from SoundCloud or other audio sites and then add various effects to create a video slideshow of all the images.  Sharing of the slideshows is simple with all the usual sharing options provided.

On the front page there is the ability to browse through shows already created and there is no way to ensure that they are appropriate, so do be mindful of that.  Those previously made can also be navigated through and searched, so there possibly could be one already created that a teacher could use.  You can sign up by connecting to Facebook or creating an account.
