My PRgative

I recently had a bunch of articles, press releases and other materials that I authored and published scanned into a PDF.  My thought was that this would make it convenient to send to people as an email attachment. 

Wrong!  It’s way too big.  Nearly 8MB, to be exact.  My Yahoo! email attachment limit is apparently a miniscule 150KB.

As a solution, I’ve discovered I can upload the PDF file to SlideShare. So now, all I have to do is  just share this link:

http://www.slideshare.net/FeliciaGriffin/felicia-griffin-writing-samples

and folks can go view and download my material whenever they want. 

SlideShare is the world’s largest community for sharing presentations.

Individuals and organizations upload presentations to share their ideas, connect with others, and generate leads for their businesses. Anyone can find presentations on topics that interest them. You can also tag, download, or embed presentations into your own blogs and websites.

SlideShare gets your slides out there on the web, so your ideas can be found and shared by a wide audience. Do you want to get the word out about your product or service? Reach people who could not make it to your talk? Are you a teacher looking to share your lesson plans?

Some of the things you can do on SlideShare:

• Embed slideshows into your own blog or website.
• Share slideshows publicly or privately. There are several ways to share privately.
• Synch audio to your slides.
• Market your own event on slideshare.
• Join groups to connect with SlideShare members who share your interests.
• Download the original file.
