Loukotka – slide show on the Internet

Loukotka is a tool for making slide shows on the Internet. The idea is simple: one person (call him story teller) prepares some photos and uploads them to the server. Then he invites some people (call them spectators) to visit his site at, say, 05:00 PM. Then the story teller can use the administration panel to change slides. People looking at the site can see the slides changes. On the site there is also simple forum, so the story teller can tell his story and spectators can commant and ask questions.
