Thanks to Drew Conway (@drewconway), a PhD student at New York University, there are now eight excellent video tutorials on using the R language up on VCASMO. I think I should do a blog post about how magical VCASMO is and why they should be eating SlideShare’s lunch, but for now, I’ll just say

  • The presentations there are synchronized video and slides, and
  • They have an API.
