BP11_20091018_Week3-Researcing_and_Blogging_about_web2.0_SlideShare.net


I do a lot of presentations using Powerpoint and Keynote. It would be nice to retrieve them from a website. SlideShare.net is a site where people can upload their presentations. People that want a copy can go and download them. Also people share their presentations with others. According to the article by Travel Geographer, “This site is the Youtube of Powerpoint presentations.” (Geographer2007) A variety of presentations are available for anyone to look at if you are willing to dig for them. I would like my students to use this site in viewing my presentations for classes. They don’t have to download them they can be viewed from the website. I see this as a valuable tool when a presentation is made then it can be used over again with out losing it on your hard drive. The worry is that if one goes to use the presentation from the website you have to have Internet access and that access goes out before your presentation starts. Rests assure it will can be downloaded and saved on the hard drive.
