Voicethread

=Task 2: Exploring Voicethread=

__**Introduction**__ Voicethread is an online media album that can hold essentially any type of media (images, documents and videos) and allows people to make comments in 5 different ways - using voice (with a microphone or telephone), text, audio file, or video (with a webcam) - and share them with anyone they wish.
