I like the look of this presentation tool. It's refreshing when compared to the countless powerpoint slide decks. That said, one of the dangers is that the style takes the focus over the substance or content of the presentation. I've looked a few of the showcase examples and seen another used in class. I've yet to find one that gets past this for me so I guess I will have to try it myself!
I've had a live demonstration of tableau software and I'm very impressed. It's on my list of software to buy at some point, including Novamind, but that's another story. I am a little disappointed that tableau is a windows based offering - I can understand it to a point but it would be awesome if they developed a purely web based solution or mac/linux variations.
Speech I gave at UBC in January 2010
I'm very interested to see how this works out. 24 Startups and a road trip - sounds like a lot of fun!
The fact I found most interesting on first read was nothing to do with disease. It is simply that it is estimated that 2/3rds of visitors to Vancouver for the Olympics will come from just 25 cities.
An interesting mix of science, history and architecture mixed in with social gaming!
Interesting presentation. I used to follow Mark's blog, but haven't read it for a while.
