Waving

I have finished my PowerPoint presentation.  You can view my PowerPoint at the following address:
http://www.authorstream.com/Presentation/aSGuest86135-832265-hawaii/

I chose pictures from some of the websites and also from Yahoo Images.  I have never used authorstream before, but it was a website that I can across when I was looking for ways to upload a PowerPoint presentation.  Once I uploaded my PowerPoint on authorstream, all I had to do was sign up.  Also this is a free site and its easy to upload a presentation and to get the link to put on a website. When you click the link above you can either download the PowerPoint presentation, click the public view or just view the presentation in the view that comes up.  Also once you get to the presentation on authorsteam to go to the next page click the arrows next to the number of the slide you are on in the left hand corner.  You can also make the PowerPoint full screen by clicking the box next to the menu button.

I was looking at the four criteria on the class website:

Purpose: I want to inform my audience about Hawaii without the two-way communication. I feel that with the blog that the comment section helps to communicate between the audience and me.  My audience can ask questions about my presentation and i can answer then through the blog and I can even ask my audience questions.
Channels: With the authorsteam website, it makes it really easy to provide my classmates and other people on this site to view my presentation.  The website gives me the options to give the website address out, but I can also post my presentation to twitter and facebook.
Format: I figured the easiest way to present the information that I collect3ed would be in a PowerPoint presentation.  I chose pictures that i felt would go with the PowerPoint.  I also thought about what kind of questions or information I would like to know about Hawaii and chose the information that I thought was appropriate.  I chose a background that would catch someones eye when they are looking at the website, but be to bold.  I also tried to pick a background that would go with Hawaii.
Sharing: I have put the URL for my presentation on my blog.  I can communicate with people through the comment section about my presentation.  I can even put my contact information on my blog, so people can send me an e-mail if they don't want their comments or questions to be seen.
