    Abstract: Systems and methods for linking slides used during a presentation with a video recording of the presentation are provided. A presenter can develop slides for a presentation using a presentation tool. The presenter can then use the presentation tool to present the slides during a live talk, a video of which can be simultaneously recorded. The presentation tool can record the times at which each slide in the presentation was displayed, and for how long each slide was displayed. After the presentation concludes, the video recording or a link thereto can be provided to the presentation tool, which then can link the video recording to the slides. Viewers of the linked presentation can view the video and slides of the presentation, with the slides advancing in step with the video. Additionally, advancing or rewinding die slides can advance or rewind the video to die corresponding time point, and vice-versa.
