SlideShare is a site to host and share presentations. You can upload all your slide decks, and find download interesting presentations. At last month's NetTuesday, Jonathan Boutelle, Co-founder and CTO of SlideShare gave a presentation on how Nonprofits can use SlideShare.
I love SlideShare for many reasons that I've shared before. It is another excellent example of "pivot" browsing, similar to del.icio.us where you navigate by tags, most views, or slide shares by users and events. I stumbled upon the term "pivot browsing" while researching a workshop I gave about tagging. Rashimi Sinha's article was very informative. What's funny, of course, is that Rashimi Sinha works for Slide Share!
If would be great to have more Slide Shows by nptech folks in the collection. (I have a theory, that I won't share, about why there are only 9 members in the group.) If you have a powerpoint presentation related to a NpTech topic that you want to share with others, Slide Share is a great place to do it. You can set up an account for free.
Over the past few months, on my own time, I've been analyzing the content of slide shows on this site and identifying slide shows to add to a NpTech group which only has 9 members so far. So, for this week's NpTech Tag Summary, I'm aggregating a few of the best ones. There many more in the group and many more for you to discover on SlideShare and add to the NpTech group if you're interested in sharing. Here they are, in no particular order:
This is a good reminder to join and upload those .ppts. Thanks for that, Beth.
