Editor's Notes
- #6: Click on “slideshare” and it takes you to this page, with tons of presentations made by other linkedin users
- #9: Click on link and then tool around, show them that this, like shown before, is what happens when you click on interest slideshare, then click on one of the presentations. You can go through the ppt, share it, like it, download it, clip it (which I’ll get to later), share on linkedin, twitter, facebook, comment, follow the creator, click on a recommended ppt on the right
- #12: Maybe make into a few slides…
- #14: Go to a presentation and hover over the slide, in the upper right corner will appear a “clip slide” icon – click on that and it will be clipped – some presentations disable clipping. Under the “my clipboards” tab, you can create clipboards so when you clip a slide, the presentations can be added to a clipboard you have. If you have multiple clipboards, when you clip something, a pop-up will appear that allows you to change which clipboard to clip the slide to
- #16: You can also create and share presentations
