Last week I shared that Animoto added the capability to create and send video greeting cards. Today, YouTube reminded us that you can also create greeting video greeting cards through their service. You use existing videos on YouTube for your greetings or you can upload your own video. Creating and sending video greeting cards through YouTube is easy, but I don’t think the finished product is as good as what can be produced using Animoto.

Applications for Education
Using the YouTube greeting card service could be a good avenue for students to develop video creation and editing skills with a clear objective. The objective being the development of a greeting and meeting a deadline.
