This was the first technical "state of the OLPC" meeting. OLPC employees gave technical talks on topics spanning the current software stack, presenting both current and future work.

OLPC announced its second-generation laptop design. Countries presented the state of their deployment and pilot projects. OLPC employees presented talks on learning, technical issues, and community building.

We took advantage of a window of opportunity when many of OLPC's far-flung employees were in Cambridge to have a series of seminars outlining the state of many of our projects.

Slides and PDFs

Here are a couple of introductory presentations that you may find useful. Note that you can give presentations effectively in Etoys, including an olpc-style toolbar; and that you can use remote display to present directly from your XO. In Etoys, you can import a standard powerpoint or open office slidestack into Etoys. You can also create a presentation from scratch in Etoys, including both static text and images (as with other presentation software), scripts and moving objects, and other (programmable) Etoys components.
