This evening, we've been testing a groovy new startup site called Wetoku. It allows you to almost instantly record and embed video in blog posts such as this one.

Although the sound and video quality are not yet stellar, we're very impressed with the concept. This is the kind of thing that would make remote, instant video journalism possible. Click a link, speak your peace with another webcam user, end the recording, and you are presented with an embed code the second the recording is over. Read, watch, and get registration code info at the end of the post!

For many, the ability to share presentations online has changed the way they design their slides, present material, and interact with their audience long after the presentation has passed. But when it comes right down to it, a presentation - regardless of the artistic rendering of the materials - is only as good as the presenter.

SlideShare, the largest presentation-sharing community on the Web, has continued to introduce functionality that helps bring presentations to life. But they've never allowed a presenter to embed themselves. Until now. Introducing YouTube embedding in SlideShare.
