-I like that with slotted, you can organize events easier, and make sure everyone who is invited knows and will be sure to see the invitation.
-the fact that you're able to invite everyone who has an internet access and email, even if they haven't signed up (or even heard of) slotted is also an advantage.
-The website does almost everything for you, you only have to list the invitees and items needed.
Some drawbacks to this program is that
-If you have people you want to invite and send a list out to, but they don't have an email or you don't know it, then it might be a complication.
-In order to make sheets and send them, you need to sign up, and I'm not sure if it's the same for signing up on a sheet
-I honestly don't see any other drawbacks for this site.
So, 2 ways I would use this would be:
-To plan a social event, like a party or even something at school
-To organize a project or other academic group work online and organized so people don't forget and they'll know what to bring by looking at the list

-I like that you can instantly drag and drop videos straight to murally, and not have to save, convert, etc. anything to them.
-The ability to collaborate is also a plus, as you can both work on it simultaneously, for a project or just if you wanted to
- It's also nice that it's available as an app, so you can work on it even if you dont have access to a computer. All in all, this looks like a great mural/presentation-making website.
Some drawbacks
-I know that dragging videos and pictures can make the computer a bit slow and wonky, so maybe it wouldn't work as fast.
-The app also looks incredibly limiting, since you can't drag and most of the uploads would take awhile.
-Collaberating online does cause a lot of lag as well.
Ways I would use this
-To make a group project
-To make some sort of presentation
