Transcript/Slide synch?

I’m trying to listen to the talk with the transcript and slides on screen, and I keep getting distacted by trying to guess which slide I’m on… The transcript would be a lot more useful if it had [next slide], [prev slide] and [skip to slide ###] indicators on it so you could follow along without thinking about it.

I've been thinking about how to do this with my talks. I think it's going to be like the elementary school film loops with the tones signalling the slide change. :)

Video with slides!

I spent a couple of hours putting together a video version of Larry's presentation. I documented the process on my blog. You can get the 36 MB DivX video from that URL.

Oops, I mangled the DivX movie by mistake. I quickly put up a larger, QuickTime version (55 MB). Sorry for the confusion. Hopefully I'll be able to figure out what went wrong with the DivX version quickly...

Thanks for making available a text version. I am one of those people who processes information faster through reading rather than listening.
