Things are moving so fast....

The event on Thursday was a great success with about
100 people turning up for the presentations. Based on
what regular visitors told me, this was one of the
most well attended events that he had been to so I
think the subjects of Social Media and Podcasting
certainly hit a nerve and stimulated a great deal of
interest.
As well as my session on Podcasting, Katie Lips (Social Media Strategist) gave a really informative and extremely comprehensive session on social media tools and services. The sheer number of these services and tools is absolutely mind boggling. I was pretty much up to speed on all of the services and tools she mentioned but a new one to me was SlideShare - basically a YouTube for presentation slideshows. Katie was going to send her slides to SlideShare to so I thought I'd check it out.
What an amazing service and such a valuable resource!
Ten minutes later, I'd signed up and uploaded my slide set from the session. You can see the slideset at the end of this post.
What really blew me away was today, I discover that there is a FaceBook app for SlideShare and within a minute of installing the FaceBook application, my slideset is made available to all my contacts and friends within FaceBook. That's along with all my other stuff that is rapidly becoming centralised and mashed up via FaceBook.
I truly think FaceBook is going to be huge.
