Digital Portfolios--A Better Way to Communicate?

Earlier posts talked about the challenge of resumes in today's multimedia environment.  A digital portfolio with voice-over capability seems to be a more engaging alternative--possibly backed-up with more traditional documentation.

SlideShare.net houses a variety of Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, including a few digital resumes.  The digital portfolio combines graphics and words to communicate ideas in a more concentrated form.  When someone wants more details, they can follow-up using links contained in the digital portfolios.

Take a look at my digital portfolio for business and at my digital portfolio for education.  (The Safari web browser doesn't want to open Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) files in the browser.  The link works with both Internet Explorer and Firefox.)   To see the entire site, go to http://joelmonty.wikispaces.com/.

The digital portfolios with voice-over are shared in Adobe Presenter and can be found on my website following this link.
