Create Presentations Online with Google Presentations
Google's long-awaited browser-based presentation tool, announced last April, has finally arrived. Here's the scoop, straight from the Official Google Blog:
Starting today, presentations -- whether imported from existing files or created using the new slide editor -- are listed alongside documents and spreadsheets in the Google Docs document list. They can be edited, shared, and published using the familiar Google Docs interface, with several collaborators working on a slide deck simultaneously, in real time. When it's time to present, participants can simply click a link to follow along as the presenter takes the audience through the slideshow.Wait, it gets better: The audience can use Google Talk to chat during the presentation. Pretty cool! With this third piece of the office-suite puzzle now in place, Google Docs is closer to challenging Microsoft Office as a viable tool for businesses. Check out the new presentation tool and tell us what you think!
