Another announcement from Mochila this week: the aggregate content service provider and widget distributer is launching a new ad-supported slide show player. This isn't too far off the path of what Mochila offers with its news widget, which also includes multimedia content. But the new slide show player is dedicated to images, and has a built-in advertising option that lets brands reach out to consumers through the web publishers that utilize Mochila's widget, and offers an additional ad-based stream of revenue for those web publishers.

The images are provided by Mochila's content parters, including Getty Images and the Associated Press. The widget itself is 300x250, and is somewhat interactive for the end user. There's a play button that gets the slide show player started, informational text that displays at the bottom of the widget (which can be hidden by the end user), previous and next buttons, and a top menu that lets users see three photos at a time.
