The focus of my presentation on Data 2.0 was to help everyone get familiar with the new breed of collaborative data tools and gain some understanding of what's happening with Web 2.0 tools and data analysis and visualization.
After I've posted my slides to slideshare.net on Harnessing New Data Visualization Tools from Computers in Libraries 2008, I received a few emails and comments.
One person couldn't get slideshare.net to work so here's a direct link to the PowerPoint..
A couple of asked for just the links.
