I have had an opportunity to go through Keep Toolkit and make an account, and I have posted a few of our projects on my portfolio. The site is clean and fairly easy to navigate. It is great to have a page with links to all of our projects on it. I liked how easy it was to quickly set up a page, but it doesn't look professional enough to be used as a portfolio to show to others.
I am having a few problems with exporting a Flash movie into a movie file small enough to fit on the site, but this more of a problem with Flash than with Keep Toolkit. I think that they should accept larger files, but you are getting a decent amount of space for free. I can see how this site would be useful for a teacher in organizing multiple projects into one page, and making them accessible for both students and parents. Personally, I don't feel that I will get much use out of the website, but it may be useful for certain applications in the future.
It is great that you can load photos and videos on to your portfolio, and this feature is one of the most interesting parts of Keep Toolkit. Although the site is not very powerful, it is easy to use, making it more appropriate for teachers who are not used to making websites.

I agree with you, there are certain limitations to this particular program. It is extremely easy to use and that's why I chose it to look at. As we work through it, maybe we could find out more PMIs for the program.
