Multimedia Tools

Multimedia enhances our text messaging in many ways, since we majority of the time text people we aren't seeing face to face to have this added enhancement makes it even better and easier to communicate with those who may be far away from us and in a very fast time interaction. One good simple example of how this is done with picture messaging, we are able to send pictures to individuals phones and they are able to share in our experiences in the things we may be seeing at the moment. Animoto is a cloud-based tool that allows users to easily incorporate pictures, video clips, music and text messages into what they want to present. Here is the link to it, http://animoto.com/. It looks to be very user friendly. There is a free option as well as a paid option, you can also use it for personal use as well as business usage. I would consider Facebook a multimedia tool as well. You're able to share pictures, video, message individuals, place things on their pages and this is all free. Facebook is very user friendly as well, I believe once you get the hang of it, it may be the most user friendly multimedia tool out there, the link is www.facebook.com. Garageband is a site that is ran through Apple. Through your Mac you are able to create music. I believe this would be good for someone who is into music or just likes playing around with various songs, beats, tunes, etc. You have to have a Mac computer I believe which limits a lot of users, also unless you are heavy into music I don't see many people making use of this app. I think the website is pretty flashy though. Here is the link to the site, http://www.apple.com/mac/garageband/?cid=oas-us-domains-garageband.com. Also you are able to share your creation with basically the world or a few close friends and family members. PowerPoint is a good old faithful way of using multimedia that is simple, clean looking and you can get very creative with it. PowerPoint is great for business presentations, class assignments, etc. I have always enjoyed creating projects using this application. It's almost limitless what you can do. I believe many people who sit down and play with PowerPoint will find out how easy it is to create things. You can find PowerPoint through any Microsoft package.
