Fliptrack is a web 2.0 (you know, one of the new breed of sites you can interact with) site that "allows users to create musical slideshows with their photos and hit music. Photos are synchronized to the beats of a song like a music video or movie soundtrack. It is free and legal to share creations." You can use the service online, or you can download the Fliptrack tool (Windows only at the moment).
Good idea or what? No longer do you have to worry about being caught out for using unlicensed music. And Fliptrack has music you've actually heard of - Barenaked Ladies, Fedde LeGrand and many more. In return, your video will have a small 'Fliptrack' logo in the bottom left hand corner.
Once you've created your video or picture show, you can choose to keep it as a private video for friends and family, or you upload and share it on Fliptrack itself or on many other sites including MySpace, Friendster, Xanga, Blogger, Facebook, Piczo, Bebo and Dogster. For the sites I've just listed, full instructions are given on how to do this.
