So I have a talk this Thursday to the MPLS.pm group
about OpenGuides.
Since I haven't given a public talk in years, I was wondering if
anyone would care to comment on my slides.
http://chris.prather.org/og_slides/slides.html
Slide 2: "A Open Source Project" should be "An Open Source Project";
"metadtata" should be "metadata"; "an geodata application"
should be
"a geodata application" (also see comment on slide 3). It would also
be more consistent to have the first point start "A Collection".
Finally, why all the capital letters?
Slide 3: I'd put a comma after "OpenGuides", and take the brackets
away from "Geodata". Also "a geodata application" is a bit of an
ugly
phrase; how about "a geographically-aware application", or "a geoaware
application"?
Slide 4: "seperated" should be "separated"; and why is
"Metadata" capitalised?
Can you actually do the "all restaurants open at noon" search?
Slide 5: Why are "Long", "Lat", and "Searching"
capitalised?
Slide 6: I'd change "first US guide" to "first US OpenGuide" (or
do we
prefer "Open Guide"?)
Slide 7: Either take the leading "The" away from the first point, or
add one to the second point.
Slide 8: Earle is spelt "Earle", not "Earl" :)
