Web 2.0 Is All About Sharing
I'm continually amazed at how quickly content and information is viewed and shared in the web 2.0 community. I use a popular site called SlideShare to share ppt slides and other presentations from conferences, etc. and I am continually amazed at how quickly the information I put up is viewed and shared.
For instance, I put my presentation (CDN's: What's Next) from HostingCon in Chicago on SlideShare on Thursday morning. 24 hours later, the presentation had been viewed 60 times. I posted my presentation from DCIA a month ago, and it's been viewed more than 350 times. Neither presentation is funny or entertaining - they're just basic presentation content on CDN's and Peer to Peer technology. Pretty amazing.
Now, let's put this in perspective. The number 1 viewed slideshow of all time on SlideShare is ShiftHappens, which has been viewed more than 170,000 times (it's actually worth viewing - check it out). Remember, these are PowerPoint presentations...
