I know...I know...in the world of social networking like twitter, blogs just aren't cool anymore, right? Well every once and a while I want to share something that exceeds 144 characters, so I created SolamenteNiel, my blog. While I'm at it, I'm also going old school with a cheesy picture of myself on my blog. In this picture I'm pertending to be an IndyCar driver.
Here's another interesting presentation that I found on slideshare. It's a long presentation, and I wish I had the audio that went along with this presentation when it was delivered.
I was wandering arround slideshare.net looking for some interesting presentations, and I came across the presentation called "Agile Development, Agile Design" from Web 2.0 Expo in Berlin. What's particularly interesting to me is the format of the presentation. It's completely done with sticky notes, markers and a few other props. It definitely doesn't feel like just another presentation, and the format keeps you engaged.
I found a new service called SlideShare, which is essentially to Presentations what YouTube is to videos. It's a place where you can post your presentations and share them with the world. I have spent a bunch of time on it yet, but I did come across this interesting presentation. The topic is particularly relevant to Web 2.0, and it's a topic I've recently been interested it. I have been working on implementing Skyway Software's Community site (wiki and forums). The site has been running for a few weeks, and the participation hasn't been great....but it has been steadily increasing. This presentation gives a hint at why and when someone chooses to contribute to a community.
