Slide-Sync Tool Launched

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

We are excited to announce a major feature launch tonight - if you check out our home page you will now see an option to synchronize your video with slides.  This feature has been in private beta since we initially launched, and we are now happy to open it up to the world.

You can import your videos from YouTube, Google Video or Blip.tv as before, and now you can either upload your slides (in pdf format) or import your slides from SlideShare.

Once you’ve uploaded your slides, you can set each one to appear at a certain point in your video.  Once you have ’synchronized’ your slides, you’ll end up with something like this:

As you can see we combine the best of YouTube and SlideShare to create a new way of experiencing presentations online.  We’re looking forward to people using this for talks, conferences, classes, training and more.  As always, we love hearing your feedback so let us know what you think!
