280slides.com
Here's my video post for this week. Â This time I did a screencast showing how 280slides.com works. Â It's another shining example of the push towards cloud computing. Â Like and before it, 280slides provides desktop presentation application functionality all from inside your web browser.

The Google CR-48 and Chrome OS
about 1 year ago - 1 comment
In case you missed it, Google had an event not too long ago which detailed Chrome OS in-depth and, in effect, "launched" the cloud-based operating system. Chrome OS has been available for some time now, but it was never available as a product - you could download a copy of it and install it yourself,
The 2nd Generation Apple TV Post
about 1 year ago - 2 comments
Christmas gifts at protocol 80 were all about TV boxes in 2010. My brother received a Logitech Revue from my family, which is powered by Google TV, and I received an Apple TV which is powered by iOS. It kind of makes sense in a way, if there's an Apple "fanboy" at the company that'd
Love this song

I actually tweeted about this not too long ago, and at the time I mentioned I could only find the song on the artist's MySpace page. Â Unfortunate, because I like to meter my time on that website as much as possible. Â Anyways, I was jonesing to hear it again today but was both sad and

about 3 years ago - No comments
I've got another application screencast for you this weekend. This time I talk about a handy little video-streaming program called Livestation. It lets you get news (and other TV channels from around the world) delivered right to your desktop. Thanks for watching, as always. =)
Live Mesh for Mac
about 3 years ago - No comments
Here's my video post for the week. I decided that since I did a video about Dropbox, and since I sort of criticized Microsoft during that video for not rolling out Mac support with Live Mesh, I'd go ahead and follow up now that that support is available. Live Mesh is a lot like Dropbox
Pandora Radio and complementary tools
about 3 years ago - 3 comments
Pandora Radio has changed the way I've listened to music. It's the most powerful music recommendation application I've ever used, and it's led to me spending a lot on new albums. If you're a music lover looking to broaden your horizons, check it out at pandora.com. In this video not only do I talk about
Dropbox : The Video
about 3 years ago - 2 comments
I wrote a post some time ago about Dropbox. It's an awesome online storage solution for backup, syncing and sharing your files. Despite having written about it I was still inclined to do a video showing how the whole thing works, so that's exactly what I did. I even compared it to Live Mesh a
Apple’s Notebook Event – 10/14/2008
about 3 years ago - No comments
Alrighty so let me first apologize for not getting a post up on Thursday. I was kinda busy this past week so I never got around to it. Instead, I've decide to record a video of what I would have written about on Thursday, which as you might guess was Apple's notebook event from this

Thanks for commenting Ross! Let me first say that 280slides is an awesome product, some really great stuff everyone at 280 North has achieved!
As far as improvements in the future, based on my limited usage the only two things I can think of are additional themes and additional slide layouts. Like I said in my video I haven’t been using 280slides for too long so I don’t consider myself an expert, and if some of this functionality is already integrated I apologize.
I think it would be cool if you could create a slide layout and then save it to your list of slide layouts. So for example if I made a slide with some text on the left and an image on the right, I could save that sort of layout and then whenever I worked on a presentation from then on in it would be available to me in the layouts menu without having to setup all of the individual slide elements again.
The same would be cool for themes – if users were able to create and save themes to their themes menu that would be awesome. Those are the only two things I can think of for now, but I’ll definitely use the feedback link at your site in the future if I can think of anything else!
Again, thanks for all of your hard work!
Dave
