Facebook For Presenters: 10 Must Have Applications

If you hadn't already noticed Facebook is no longer something that your kids do, and has transformed itself into the essential sign-up of the year. Having a Facebook presence can help you out in all kinds of ways, and if you'd like an introduction to what the buzz is all about out, you could check out my recent introductory article over at Master New Media.

Once that has hopefully convinced you that Facebook is a must-have, quintessential disruptive technology you might want to start thinking about how you can use it in connection to presentations.

Core to the success of Facebook has been its ability to draw on a pool of literally hundreds of third-party applications. In this brief introduction I take you through ten great apps that you can bring to your Facebook profile to make a real impact with your online presentations.

Here are the details:



  1. FlipFrames

  2. Vuvox

  7. Flipbook

    The Photo Flipbook is an application on the Facebook Platform that allows users to interact with online photos in a cool new way. Instead of grouping pictures on a single page, the Photo Flipbook takes existing photo albums and displays them as if they are in a book. You can show the photo's caption, change the background and flip through each interactive album by clicking and dragging the corner of each page.

  8. Lunapic Photo Editor

    Lunapic Photo Editor allows you to edit your photos with the click of a button, giving you the chance to prepare and alter your slides right from Facebook. Effects and features include: Cut, crop, rotate, sharpen, blend and cool animation effects.

  9. RockYou! Slide Shows

    The Slide slide show app also features a comprehensive set of features that include music, skins, themes, and styles for making great looking presentations

So now you have no excuse for not making your presentations a profoundly social, networked affair!
