Create Animation Videos for Presentation

Recently, my friend Gokul used a Web based tool to present his idea, in the form of an animation video, for one of his projects. It looked quite good and was an easy to use tool too.
It's called GoAnimate : www.goanimate.com . Of course, it costs money, but has a free trial for 14 days.
There are some more like these (not sure if all have a pricing).
Check them out here :

I just wanted to share this, because many people are into projects and are presenting ideas and stuff, in conferences and for internal funding projects etc.
These tools might come handy in any presentation!
