<p><strong><a href="http://briksoftware.com/products/camouflage/">Camouflage</a></strong></p> My other key piece of OS X presenting software—hides all of the icons on the desktop (no need to drag them all in to an “Archive” folder every time I give talk). <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/camouflage">camouflage</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/macos">macos</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/presenting">presenting</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/software">software</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://lightheadsw.com/caffeine/">Caffeine</a></strong></p> I’ve been using this for several months and I love it: it’s a simple OS X menu bar icon that lets you prevent your Mac from dimming the screen, going to sleep or starting a screen saver. Perfect for giving presentations and watching Flash movies full screen. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/caffeine">caffeine</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/macos">macos</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/presenting">presenting</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/software">software</a></p>

<p>The team at Carson Systems have a pretty quick turnaround on their podcasts; they've had full recordings of every speaker up <a href="http://www.futureofwebapps.com/" title="The Future of Web Apps">for a few days now</a>. I spent a bunch of time over the weekend splicing the recording of my talk together with my slides, and the result is now available at <a href="http://simonwillison.net/2007/openid-fowa/">The Future of OpenID (a slidecast)</a>.</p> <p>I managed to crunch it down to a 41.2 MB H.264 MPEG file; there is also a Flash video version are available on <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/thefutureofopenid" title="Internet Archive: Details: The Future of OpenID">the Internet Archive</a>.</p> <p>A quick aside: I'm hosting the main video file in the Internet Archive's <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/opensource_movies">Open Source Movies</a> collection. They actively encourage people to <a href="http://www.archive.org/create/">submit their own digital artifacts</a>, and once you've uploaded something they'll automatically create thumbnails, derive an FLV version, mirror it to a bunch of places and <a href="http://www.us.archive.org/log_show.php?task_id=13552773" title="Log file of tasks performed on my video">much more besides</a>. If you've got a large video to distribute this is a great way to share it.</p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/future-of-web-apps">future-of-web-apps</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/internet-archive">internet-archive</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/openid">openid</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/presenting">presenting</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/slidecast">slidecast</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/my-talks">my-talks</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://bright-green.com/blog/2006_12_14/rails_vs_django_paper_and.html">Rails vs Django Paper and Slides</a></strong></p> Even if you’ve already read the paper you should check out the slides. Really good flow, clear and clever use of diagrams. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/django">django</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/presenting">presenting</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/rails">rails</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/slides">slides</a></p>
