Soundslides now offers a hosting site, finally!

   Ever since I've been teaching Soundslides at Owens Community College, I've been unable to generate an embed code for publishing the projects...until now.
   Ten minutes ago I discovered that Soundslides now offers a hosting site for Soundslide projects. Soundslides is offering six months of free hosting, and I immediately signed up for it. Then it's only $12 a year after that. I can't tell you how excited I am that this publishing issue has been resolved.
   So many students have created Soundslides projects that couldn't be viewed because we didn't have access to a website, which was needed to create the HTML embed code. Now I can generate their embed codes and they can post their projects on their blogs. Here's the link to the site: http://support.soundslides.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=154.
   Problem solved! Thank you, Joe!
   The following Soundslides project is the community project the Intro to Photojournalism class shot and produced during the Fall of 2012. 

Burned: a Soundslides project on arson in Central Toledo

   It took me two years to show you what you are about to watch: a Soundslides project on a blog post.
   After much research and trial & error, I finally figured it out. Now it seems so simple. I actually did a Camtasia Studio tutorial on the process yesterday. It's a little rough because I just learned Camtasia right before I did the tutorial, but it's still effective. It can be viewed here.
