Lecture slides on Web 2.0

Today I gave a lecture on Web 2.0 to 3rd year undergraduate students in Informatics at the University of Lugano.

I concentrated on the themes of user-generated content (wikis, blogging, tagging), applications (mash-ups), social networks and personalization. For each area I gave an overview of current techniques and described some examples, before discussing some research areas (and providing pointers to further information).

The slides of the presentation are available online. - Being a presentation on Web 2.0 I thought that using an online office suite was appropriate....

Cool presentation!
But for now slideshare.net is more 2.0 ;-))
And maybe I suggest you to give a license to your presentation, I suggest a creative commons one. So other people can reuse your content (giving credit, ... under whatever license you choose, non-commercial, no-derivative, share-alike, ...)

Ciao!

Thanks for your comment Paolo. Glad you liked the presentation.

Good idea about the Creative Commons license. - I've now put a link to the CC license on the title page.
