25 Time Management Hacks to Kickstart the New Year

Is slideshare.net really useful without hearing the presenters talk about it? This particular slideshow has lots of actionable content on the slides, but in most other presentations I see shared from slideshare.net, a lot of the slides are just images or one word. You get the impression that the presenter used that as an anchor point and then talked about it for a minute or two. But you won't pick that up at slideshare.net, because it's just the slides with no audio accompaniment.

Or am I missing a button that turns on audio presentation?

That said, I'm sorta glad this is a thing, because I'm severely hearing impaired and listening to people talk (especially if they have any sort of non-American accent) is very difficult for me. I just see these shares pop up occasionally on HN or Reddit and I almost always scratch my head about why that got upvoted so much.
