iPad + Apps for Designers presentation was prepared for a #KBTribeChat Twitter chat. It was a social media experiment to see if a Twitter chat about technology would be enhanced by a reference presentation posted on SlideShare. The results were exciting. There were 50 attendees at the Twitter chat who 'retweeted' the presentation widely. Since that time, the presentation has been featured in the Formica Group blog, http://goo.gl/J78ux, and in an interview at the SlideShare blog, http://goo.gl/hHSkb
