Our presentation from the WDYTYA Live event

Thursday, March 12th, 2009

You can now download our presentation from the WhoDoYouThinkYouAre LIVE show at Olympia.

The first half shows just the slides, the second half repeats the slides but with our presentation notes on them, which is probably much more useful. Please be aware that it is quite a hefty download (6Mb). We have provided it in PDF format so everyone should be able to view it by downloading free Adobe Acrobat reader software.

Please see the other posts on this blog for notes on the service and counties available at launch.
