Slide

Slide is an application development company that gained notoriety with the introduction of its wildly popular photo-sharing slideshow widget. It allows you to embed slideshows into most social networks including Facebook, Hi-5, Friendster, Piczo, Xanga, Blogger and MySpace. Users can upload a variety of their own favorite images and photos and display them in slideshow format wherever they choose. As one of the top application development companies on these social networking sites today, the majority of the company's revenue today comes from applications on Facebook and MySpace that are equally as popular.

Namely, SuperPoke Pets, RockRiot, TopFriends, and FunSpace. Slide also has other photo-sharing applications as well. FunPix, SkinFlix, and Guestbook are available on some of the other social networking sites as well, and are even compatible with a number of popular blogging sites. The company's website also offers free image hosting similar to that offered by Flickr and Photobucket. Users can sign up for their own free account on the company website and upload their own personal images and pictures for sharing with others via their social networking profiles.

Slide Inc. is based out of San Francisco, California, and currently has 125 in-house employees. The company was founded by former Paypal and Yelp pioneer Max Levchin, who established himself in the online community by founding Paypal in 1998 and later selling it to Ebay for $1.5 billion at the age of 26.
