Combine SlideShare and YouTube for increased reach

I upload a lot of my presentation slides to slideshare.

Two reasons:

• Marketing
• Backups

The main reason of course is marketing. And since my slide decks normally have a presentation associated with them. If the presentation has been recorded and released to YouTube then I normally add youtube links into the slideshare deck.

Now Slideshare have added a feature where you can embed the youtube video into the deck itself.

Steps:

1. Goto "My Uploads"
2. Select the slideshare deck
3. either
• Edit Settings
• Use the Tab Edit YoutTube video
4. or
• click "Add Video"
5. Choose where in the deck you want the video to appear

Done.

I usually add the video at the end of all the slides, since I assume people use slideshare for reading rather than watching, but it is a new feature worth experimenting with.
