Online Presentations

The first thing that I learned was what online presentations were.  I never heard of them prior to this class and it was very interesting to see a few for the first time.  It's really neat to see items that people typically put on paper on a personal website more or less.  Another thing I learned was how people are using them and what they are being used for.  There is a lot of detail in most of the presentations and they all look very professional.  I was surprised by the amount of websites that aid people in creating a professional online presentation.  The benefit for having your own online presentation seems to be priceless.  Instead of dealing with a paper trail, one can simply say all of their important, job information is online.  This leads to my last important thing that I learned from working on the online presentation, and that is the importance of having one.  The future is driving towards all things digital, and my guess is that in the near future employers aren't going to even want a paper resume.  In fact, some places currently don't want paper versions, which leads me to believe that soon, most if not all, employers are going to require a online presentation.  A lot of valuble information was gained again this week through this course, and I am very thankful to have been able to learn this information.
