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.

Other presentations

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.
