I was impressed with animoto.com, a site that enables you to very easily create a dynamic video from your photos set to music. You can choose images from your computer or online from sites such as Flickr. Music can be chosen from a selection provided or uploaded. Once created the video can be saved to your computer or uploaded to video sharing sites such as YouTube (you can leave it hosted with Animoto but they place a watermark in the corner throughout the video).

It’s free to create a 30 second video, $3 for “full length” (determined by number of images) or $30 unlimited use for a year. Here’s a sample I created in minutes based on my shots from Thailand.
