  4. Images, Docs, Videos… • VoiceThread supports PDF, Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint (including Office 2007 formats), images, and videos.

  5. Doodling • With Doodling, you can draw on top of the media as you record your comment (using mic, webcam, or keyboard). • VoiceThread Doodles are synced to your comment, showing viewers your thoughts in action.

  6. Embedding • With embedding, you can add interactive group discussions to any website. • Simply copy and paste the embed code to your website and let the conversations begin.

  7. Exporting • Exporting allows you to download an archival widescreen movie that is an exact replica of a VoiceThread, including all media, comments, and Doodles. • Exports cost $2.99 each or purchase 10 for $20. VoiceThread Pro accounts include 30 exports with purchase. (File formats: High quality = 720x480 .mov, Mobile = 320x240 .mp4.)

  8. Moderation • VoiceThread's Comment Moderation allows VoiceThread creators and editors to pick which comments are shown to everyone else.

  9. Identities • One VoiceThread account can have many identities associated with it. • A family, a class, or an interesting person can switch identities on-the-fly without having to sign in with a different account.
