PowerPoint content
Jan 16 2008, 12:25 AM EST I use PowerPoint2007 for my presentations, which I 'can' save into 2003 format, but then editing of the cooler features is lost. I thought about uploading the slides to here for you all to play with and use, but there's a 2mb limit and the file sizes (I use a lot of youtube movies in my presentations) is waaaay over that. Even pdf versions of the slide decks are usually over 2mb. Would it be of value if I zipped up my presentations and left you with links to the 2007 versions, complete with movies, etc.? Lee 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Jan 16 2008, 10:21 PM EST Hi Lee, Thanks for all your recent contributions - this is great stuff. Posting the presentations as zip files would be fantastic - they would be a great resource. I can think of alternatives to doing that, though, that would let the community here "play with and use" it: pick the best of the worded content and post it on the page directly, then embed the videos via YouTube (you can do that via the 'widget' button when editing a page). How does that sound? I don't know if that would be too much work... let me know if I can help you out. Cheers, Dave Do you find this valuable? |

Jan 17 2008, 2:07 AM EST G'day Dave, Nah, too much like hard work :-) I'll create zip files that allow folks to play the whole presentation including the movies (embedded), then link to them fm my server. Cheers, Lee 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Jan 23 2008, 9:59 PM EST Lee, I would be very interested in taking a look at that. How would I access it? Do you find this valuable? |

Jan 24 2008, 6:49 AM EST Good morning Lee. Have always enjoyed your reports from Oz in FIR! I've taken my basic "stump" social media presentation in PowerPoint 2003 and converted it into a Flash presentation that I'm using to demonstrate Articulate Presenter to new clients. Many clients are asking how to combine PowerPoint and podcasts, and we think this is a great solution. The program creates a Flash player you can post to a website, in front of, or behind a firewall, burn to CD, etc. It permits interactive exhibits, self-paced quizzes, and all the other bells/whistles you'd like for an e-learning module. Everyone can take a look at http://www.lubetkin.net/slideshows/socialmedia/player.html. Might be a better solution for some situations where just posting a PowerPoint deck and an MP3 file as separate downloads is just impractical. Thanks! Steve Lubetkin 2 out of 2 found this valuable.

Feb 1 2008, 7:36 AM EST Lee - you can upload your presentation to slideshare and then embed it here on this wiki, or at least place a link to it. Slideshare now allows users to add sound to presentations, so you can add narration if you like. Do you find this valuable? |
