Bryen, If you have issues, let me know. Natch, I'm familiar with various local resources. If you're driving, I'm working at the Newbreak Cafe coffee shop now. Tony On Wed, Mar 9, 2011 at 7:46 AM, Bryen Yunashko <hello@bryen.com> wrote:

I committed a horrible faux pas yesterday. I left my laptop power cord at home!!!  So I have to scramble to find one today when I should have been wrapping up the work I was doing with an all nighter.

As soon as I can buy a new cord (Fry's please have one please please) then I can get back to work and focus again.

The only blessing here is I had my fusrt full night sleep in at least a week. So I will be fully rested for tmw launch which I will be up early for the 12 UTC launch. Whoo whoo

Hi all, Thx Jos. I just ran through the slides and notes and it looks like a good alternative to your SCALE presentation... so I'm now evaluating which direction I might want to go.. Distro-centric like this presentation or touching more on the other openSUSE projects like in your SCALE presentation.

Some recommendations and some modifications I'm making to my copy...

- I usually prefer to "bullet" my notes, stating topics in 5 words or less at a time. That enables me to glance at the topic, then speak to the audience. Anything longer makes me pause to read, then digest in my mind before speaking which hurts my audience eye contact. - Just my style which isn't necessarily recommended to others, but I usually embed major bullet points on the slide instead of hiding in notes. That enables the audience to visually absorb the information both previewing and reviewing the points as I speak. I rarely fill the whole screen with a screenshot, and if I do then the target content in the screenshot is <very large> unless the overall look is the important point. Note that when placing text content on the screen it's still critical to talk to the audience and not to the screen which is likely behind you.

I don't think there should be a problem posting to your Google Docs, then sharing the "Place" with others.The only practical restriction is a 100mb total repository size. In fact, take a look at what I've done enabling presentations to be seen from a free Google website displaying content stored in Google Docs. You can configure permissions for

Public (no restrictions to view) Private (only people with specified Google accounts can view) Link only (not publicly searchable, anyone who has a link (eg from email) can view)

All the presentations on my site are longer than yours. Note that besides viewing online, there is a download link on each presentation as well http://sites.google.com/site/4techsecrets/slide-presentations

Good stuff Jos, Tony

Dear friends,

I realize this is very late in the game, however I hope it is still useful. I finally managed to update (pretty much rewrote) my 11.4 presentation, see attached. I hope it will be useful!

I would love to have this on the wiki but can't upload it due to the 2 mb size limit, Darix, could you put this somewhere and tell us the link?

Thanks all and have fun with the 11.4 release! Jos
