easy way to embed either a YouTube video or a FlipCam video in Powerpoint

E-books are becoming an increasingly popular medium for displaying information. And if you find yourself frequenting these new electronic books, you may have noticed that it becomes quite dull after a while. I, for one, miss the tangible page flip of a novel or a good instructional guide. That's why Codebox's web app - that's called PDF to Flash Page Flipper (or Flip) - appealed to me. It's an app that can replicate the more interesting animations found on my iPad or a similar tablet and put them onto my laptop. In fact, it's almost better, allowing you to turn any old PDF file into a superior flash-based and flippable book. The conversion process is fairly easy, with a lot of customization options that really don't need to be messed around with. All in all, it is a pretty slick app, at the right price….$0.

Most study sites let you create study lists and flash cards, then they just send you back through the same pile over and over again. Headmagnet actually tracks what you're recalling and what you're not and tweaks your study routines to help you recall the things you're forgetting. In addition to tracking your scores to tweak your flash card stacks, Headmagnet lets you view the stats yourself. You can check out how well you're doing, how frequently you've been studying, and crunch the numbers to see if your study time is paying off.

TimeGlider is a data-driven interactive timeline application built on the (Adobe) Flash platform. You can "grab" the timeline and drag it left and right, and zoom in and out to view centuries at a time or just hours. TimeGlider allows you to create event-spans so that you can see durations and how they overlap. Being web-based, TimeGlider lets you collaborate and share easily. You can create timelines about the last year of your family, the last century of world events, or about pre-historical (bce/bc) times. Currently, one can zoom out to a scope of millenia: In 2009, we plan to improve the breadth of our zooming capability to include the Big Bang.

I tried it and couldn't quite figure it out quickly. Looks complicated. (It might not BE complicated, but it looks like it, which is a liability.)
