About Presentations:

The presentation that you see here are all my own work. That is, I built the shows and talked the talk. The primary list points to shows built with S5 (see Eric Meyer's site that explains this). But some are also provided as PDF.

I sometimes use Apple Keynote and then I publish here as PDF.
