A Snippet:

One of the darlings of social media, Google owned YouTube is allowing users to play around with some beta features that have been added to their experimental "TestTube" area. The features are designed to further engage users, which is sort of funny when you think about it. (YouTube already has an average visit length of 28 minutes.) The question becomes, how will creative marketers manage to use these new tools to further promote their brands?

Aloha Jennifer and anyone else who can help. I'm trying to convert my Powerpoint slide to video to be able to upload on YouTube. Can anyone point me in the right direction to do this?

Aloha,

Since I posted this message I've learned quite a few things. The most important thing is that I can't download MacroMedia Flash to my computer because it needs some sort of permission. I've been to several forums and tried to download but could not. So, I couldn't convert my slide show with the transitions and sound. I did find SlideShare if I may post the link www.slideshare.net where I was able to post my slide show minus the transitions and sound but still I'm able to send people there to view it and get an idea of how they can make their own Slide Show Vision Board Presentation. They can even make it fancier if they have the right programs in their computer. I also found some other interesting sites like OpenOffice.org that lets you transfer powerpoint to their program and from there you convert to flash.

Have A Great Day!...and...
