Slideshare – What is it?
• “A Document sharing site”
• Either publicly or privately
• You have a PowerPoint presentation
to make and you want your team
members to “vet” it. Slideshare is the
perfect medium to share it with your
team.
• How about that word document,
easy as pie, turn it into a PDF file and
upload it in seconds.
• Infographics – start uploading
