I have been an avid fan of SlideShare since it launched - it has all the elements of DonTapscott's Wikinomics: Open, Peering,Sharing, Global. IMO Slideshare for Business is a brilliant commercial move for the company.
Rashmi Sinha(shown here) is the genius behind the company.
Check out this SlideShare Presentation, which exemplifies Presentation Zen it its style and will give you another way to unlock the value in your presentations.
This slideshare audiocast illustrates the use of SlideShare audio casting and David's unique ability to use his Library of visuals to support his responses to interviewer Sean's questions.
I will be subscribing to both David's blog and Sean Howard's Passion Files to keep my passion for visual thinking up to speed and up to date.
Combining these visual CV's with social networking tools brings the person to "life". Saranyans' slideshow could be a short video with his voice overdubbed ( this can be done in Slideshare) With his voice the CV would be even more personal.

Here is a test presentation of a new slideshare feature I have been waiting for. Combine your slideshare presentations with an audio track and Voila! an audiographic presentation. Voice over PPT - Very effective for rehearsal or for cleaning up and redubbing a previous audio recording of your presentations. Also useful as soundbite creator for selected segments of a presentation. And, all nicely microformatted by Slideshare to support remixing. Could be a new style of podcasting.
Click on the central Listen button to the embedded slideshow below to hear and see the audiographic demo - I can't wait to test it on some of my Slideshare presentations.
Thanks for the Test to Garr Reynolds - otherwise found at Presentation Zen
