Very cool online video tool

I just tried out a new online video / slideshow creation tool, Animoto. Incredibly easy, quick & fun.
I grabbed some images from our recent trip to GenCon for Aidan 5 and created one of the Animoto shorts (free). Looks like you can purchase “full-length credits” as well for longer pieces.

Here’s what I put together (took about 5-10 min total).

    Cool to see that in action. What’s the benefit of this vs posting to youtube?

    Animoto allows you to create enhanced slideshows through their website.
    Animoto’s description on their site:

    Animoto automatically produces beautifully orchestrated, completely unique video pieces from your photos, video clips and music. Fast, free and shockingly easy.

    vs. sites like YouTube and Vimeo that allow you to post videos that you create yourself.
