We’re now using SlideShare to display our presentations
April 8th, 2008 by Dan York
I’ve long been a fan of SlideShare.net as a tool for sharing presentations and today I’m pleased to announce that we’re now starting to upload public presentations to:
http://www.slideshare.net/voxeo
SlideShare offers capabilities for presentations similar to what YouTube offers for videos: reviews, comments, tags, “related” presentations and much more. They also provide the very nice ability to embed a presentation directly into a web site. Here is an example with a presentation RJ gave last month at Asterisk World 2008 / VON 2008 in San Jose:
What’s also cool is that if we had the audio for a presentation like this, we can sync the audio to the slides so that you can listen and see the slides move with the audio. Here’s an example I did for a VoIP security talk: “The Black Bag Security Review.” You can also download the PDF file for each set of slides if you go to the page on the SlideShare site for the specific presentation (allowing download is an option at SlideShare, but one we’ve enabled for our presentations so far).
We’ve uploaded three current presentations from RJ to our SlideShare area right now and in the months ahead we’ll upload more presentations as we speak at other conferences or just have presentations we’d like to share. (We’ll also add audio when we can.)
What do you think? Do you find seeing presentations in this format useful? Comments about our presentations - or about our use of SlideShare - are definitely welcome.

[...] Given our huge focus on open standards and RJ’s direct involvement as chair of the W3C’s CCXML Working Group, you can expect this session to deliver a wealth of information! (Hmmm… how high can I set the expectation bar for RJ? Hmmm… “he’s going to show how open standards solve world hunger!”… no, that’s a bit too high! RJ is, though, an excellent presenter as you may get a glimpse of from his past slide decks.) [...]
