Presentation Zen (a brilliant, amazing site) just posted an in-depth discussion of Slideshare and various other means of sharing presentations online.
Contrasting how various technologies support or delimit the depth of a range of communication styles, Mr Reynolds sketches a landscape that most of us are only beginning to discover. As more and more academics adopt these more advanced visual aids (for both traditional and distance learning), I suspect that essays like this will help some to avoid the bogs and fens of imperfect tools and techniques.
If you're serious about improving your ability to communicate with groups (e.g., classrooms, job talks), Garr Reynolds is someone you will want to read.
