Slide shows via Keynote on MacOSX



 Hello: 

Keynote 08 has made putting up a presentation to YouTube easy.  This 
was the main reason I paid the big price for one of their laptops.  I 
put together a talk for an APS meeting on Saturday at 8AM in 
Connecticut.  There were only 7 people in the audience, 5 of whom were 
also giving talks.  I happen to be a fringe physicists, someone 
without paper credentials who is trying to make a significant 
contribution to physics (a unified field theory).  The slides were 
finalized Friday night, and I recorded a practice session.  That I 
sent up to YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeGgmE2wB5I using 
the "share" menu.  By 5am when I was getting to leave, 3 people had 
already viewed it.  No one in the physical audience showed much 
interest.  In two weeks, it has been viewed 110 times. 

I don't think having the talking person is a good use of the video, 
however traditional it may appear.  If the slides and audio are super 
clear, not much else is needed.
