YouTube - Safety Mode
Safety Mode is an opt-in setting that helps screen out potentially objectionable content that you may prefer not to see or don't want others in your family to stumble across while enjoying YouTube. You can think of this as a parental control setting for YouTube. How to turn Safety Mode On : Scroll to the bottom of any YouTube page and click the drop-down menu in the "Safety" section.Select the On or Off option to enable or disable this feature. Please note : Enabling Safety Mode on YouTube will also enable Google SafeSearch, which is a similar filter for Google Search. How to lock Safety Mode : If you wish for Safety Mode to stay enabled on YouTube every time you visit the site, you must lock Safety Mode. Sign in to your YouTube account. How Safety Mode works : While it's not 100 percent accurate, we use community flagging, age-restrictions, and other signals to identify and filter out inappropriate content. Please note that YouTube Safety Mode and Google SafeSearch are linked.

7 Web-based Tools for Creating Short Video Stories
Yesterday, I wrote a post about Adobe's new digital storytelling iPad app called Adobe Voice. After posting that on Facebook I received a few requests for suggestions for similar tools that can be used in a web browser. Here are some nice web-based tools for quickly creating short videos. UtellStory is a service for creating and sharing audio slideshows. Sokratik is a newer service (still in beta) for creating audio slideshows. Narrable is a neat service for creating short narrated slideshows. Present.me is a handy service for recording video and or audio to accompany your slides. PixiClip is a slick tool tool for creating, narrating, and sharing drawings. Animoto is still the old standby in this field. YouTube Photo Slideshows is one of the frequently overlooked tools built into YouTube.
