It's not really a webpage, it's a place where you can download the
code. The subject of the email about says it all... it's a tool for
doing presentations from a terminal window.

It's for doing the "one sentence per slide" type of presentation and
has nifty transitions. You can switch gnome-terminal to full screen
mode (F11) and maybe bump the font-size up a notch or two (Ctrl +) and
really wow your audience.
