VoiceThread: Collaboration Made Simple With VoiceThread, group conversations are collected and shared in one place from anywhere in the world, all with no software to install. A VoiceThread is a collaborative, multimedia slide show that holds images, documents and videos and allows people to navigate slides and leave comments in 5 ways - using voice (with a mic or telephone), text, audio file, or video (via a webcam). With VoiceThread, you can share all kinds of things with friends, other students, family, and your teacher and let them record comments too. Users can doodle while commenting, use multiple identifies, and pick which comments are shown through moderation. VoiceThreads can even be embedded to show and receive comments on other websites and exported to MP3 players or DVDs to play as archival movies.
