Over the weekend I gave a brief technical presentation at National History Day about developing History websites to a group of high schoolers and their teachers. From now on, whenever I give a talk I’ll try to post my slides to slideshare so others can view and download it (after being inspired by Karin).  Here’s my first stab at it:

I covered the basics of using a WYSIWYG editor and templates to structure your site, and then explored a few ways to embed content into your pages. While preparing the slides, I stumbled upon a great website called CommunityWalk that offers a simple interface for creating embed-able Google Maps. It appends small advertisements to your markers but it’s still worth checking out.
