Alternatives to Glogster

I'm having trouble with the school's web security system... Barracuda. It will let me onto Glogster, but it continues to block Glogster because of all the Social Networking links. Can anyone suggest any alternatives, which still have the interactivity of Glogster?

Hi, Sally!
Were you using Glogster EDU? http://edu.glogster.com/ ....both are blocked in our county unfortunately...but I thought I would ask. I personally don't know about anything else that is quite like Glogster (it is amazing) but I have been playing with Prezi and Vuvox for presentation alternatives and both remain unblocked in our county. Have fun!

Our district unblocked edu.glogster. I believe Glogster is still blocked. I remember seeing instructions on the EDU glogster site for the IT people so they could unblock edu.glogster but still keep glogster blocked.

I also enjoy Animoto, which is a more video oriented way to present. What makes it similar to edu.glogster is there is an animoto for educators component. I believe there is a way for a teacher to set up a class like in edu.glogster. And you can embed into websites.
