Another wingsuit video


This is actually the video I was intending to display some time ago:


"We were getting bored so now we fly close to things" that's the gist of the speaking here.

Using Slideshare.net to view a presentation:

Beautiful Photos



As I wrote the last entry I was wondering how I could make a presentation visible without requiring anyone to login to a service and I remembered Slideshare.net. You can upload a presentation logged in or not and make it visible to everyone or just selected e-mail addresses (as with Google Docs) but if you let everyone see it they can see it right away.

If you click on the screen icon, second from the bottom right above it will display full screen. (If you have flash installed in your browser.)
View SlideShare presentation or Upload your own. (tags: incredible photos).

Some Beautiful Photos



This group of pictures came to me as a presentation that I uploaded to Google Docs. So here I will kill two birds with one stone and show off some great photos and the workings of Google Docs. You can go through the pictures just using the arrows in this display, or if you have a Google Docs account you can click on the little rectangle in the center bottom of the display to open a new window and log into Google Docs and view the presentation photos full screen.

There will be a chat window on the right of that screen so others viewing at the same time can chat with each other and one person can be a "Presenter" and lead other viewers through the slides.

It's a great service particularly considering the cost. (FREE!)

Have a look at the Blogs suggested from the link above and see if you don't agree...
