Powerpoint from RSS presentation

by Jason on Sep.30, 2008, under presentations

Here are the slides from my presentation at Saturday’s Atlanta Emerging Librarians meeting, on “RSS Tools For Emerging Librarians.” (Click the photo to download.) I gave an overview of what RSS is, reading and subscribing feeds, easy ways to share and publish RSS, and how to incorporate RSS content into an existing page.

I tried to get an audio recording, but in the course of rebooting the laptop and hooking up the projector I lost my default microphone settings in Audacity, so the recording didn’t turn out.

I’m not uploading this one to Slideshare since I used so many layered images I don’t think it’ll convert very well. The Powerpoint file includes my sketchy notes — I make no guarantees that they’ll make sense to anyone but me….

Hello Jason:

I recently started a Web 2.0 class and would like to thank you for this detailed power point presentation. I’ve only scanned it, but will be back when I have more time to take a more detailed look.

I’m glad it’s useful, Carol — let me know if you end up using any of it in class! I’ve also got a full RSS workshop outline here: http://jasonpuckett.net/teaching/rss-workshop/

Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed the presentation. I also created a PowerPoint on RSS for librarians which is on Slideshare if anyone is interested (it goes into a bit more detail than this one on variety of ways to subscribe to feeds and gives some perspective on what purposes are served best by each method). http://www.slideshare.net/dawinarski/rss-for-librarians/
