GIVING IRAQ VETERANS THE SHAFT
At some point it would be nice if the reality of how our government treats American veterans matched the rhetoric politicians like to employ about the value of their service.
Hat tip to eddie.

GUEST POSTING AT DEMOCRACY PROJECT
My friend, Bruce Kesler was gracious enough to offer me a guest posting opportunity on the topic of 4GW at the well-respected group blog Democracy Project. Bruce’s only proviso was that the piece should be aimed at the general reader and not the academic specialist or military professional and I have endeavored to comply.
With far more patience than I deserve, Bruce waited for me to finally get my post together and he has put it up this evening:
Much thanks to Bruce Kesler for allowing me to expound on this topic for DP readers!

SLIP, SLIDECASTING, AWAY!
From Dave Davison at Thoughts Illustrated:
“Here is a test presentation of a new slideshare feature I have been waiting for. Combine your slideshare presentations with an audio track and Voila! an audiographic presentation. Voice over PPT – Very effective for rehearsal or for cleaning up and redubbing a previous audio recording of your presentations. Also useful as soundbite creator for selected segments of a presentation. And, all nicely microformatted by Slideshare to support remixing. Could be a new style of podcasting.”
Here is the slidecast that Dave was writing about, “Differentiation and Engagement” by Garr Reynolds at Presentation Zen ( kudos on the blog name, Garr !):
