Show HN: Slides as map tiles, featuring an intro to Distributism (2012)
- jawns 8y agoI had built this page in 2012 while experimenting with novel ways to present slides online. On the plus side, the novelty of the mechanism by which you advance through the slides is likely to keep people's attention, at least for small presentations. On the down side, for longer presentations it becomes tedious, and there's no real significance to how the slides are mapped, so the user has no intuition about how to get back to a previous section. (It's almost like you're stuck in Ikea and have no choice but to keep following the arrows to retrace your steps.) Plus, because the slides are represented as map tiles, there's no easy way to select/copy/paste the content. Still, it was a fun exercise -- and a cool way to share a little bit about Distributism, a "third way" economic philosophy.
