Thought I’d share a quick embedded presentation here for folks who aren’t yet following me on SlideShare. (Although after performing tag-team PowerPoint Karaoke at PodCamp Boston, perhaps I should think twice?).
The goal of the presentation- a sanitized (client references removed) version of one given to a client this week – was to talk about:
- Social Media (and specifically how to get started with it)
- Facebook (and other social network applications)
- The iPhone (and other mobile platforms)

Wednesday was day two of Web Content 2008, and I presented in the afternoon on the rise of user-contributed content and community, and the impact that’s had on content management.

I presented yesterday at BarCamp Boston 3 on the topic of WPBook, the WordPress plugin for pulling blog posts into Facebook and letting people comment on them with their Facebook identities.
Here’s the presentation file: WordPress to Facebook and Back (Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike license)
As always, you can get the latest code here, or see it in action on Facebook.
I found it was very difficult to do a 30 minute presentation here – 45 would have been better, and an hour would have been perfect. I should have spent more time focused on three key aspects: the core WordPress plugin API, the Facebook API, and the bigger picture of how they relate to each other.
That way I could have shown, for example, the WordPress loop and how that works, and some of the Facebook PHP client, and how a user’s request goes through Facebook to your WordPress blog and back to their browser.
I’ll try to set a bit more context in my Twitter talk later today, though 30 minutes will be a challenge there as well.
