Google Presentations arrives

// September 18th, 2007 // fun

Since I’ve done so much writing on Web 2.0 and how you can move your internet life OFF your computer and onto the web, I want to keep passing on new things that should help further this evolution.

Google Docs has been around for awhile already. I wrote about how you can use it for writing documents and doing spreadsheets. The cool thing is that they are kept on the web, so you can work on them from anywhere, and also share them with anyone and the latest version is always the one you see. No need to email documents to people anymore…just send them the link to the published version on Google Docs.

Anyways, this week Google finally released Google Presentation, which is their answer to Microsoft PowerPoint. It now gives you even MORE reason to move all your document creation and development online. Most of their Google Doc apps allow you to save them in Microsoft format if you wish, so it’s easy to share will people in your Microsoft-based office.

And if you are interested in how it works compared to PowerPoint, Mashable has already written up a comparison blog about it. Check it out.

So there you go…exciting news if you get into this stuff.
