Use Slideshare for online presentations

with 2 comments

I found out about Slideshare through Preetam’s blog post.

You upload your presentations in .ppt(Powerpoint) or .odp(OpenOffice) format and the site will automatically convert them into flash-based presentations. You can then share your slides over the net.

I think Slideshare is a great tool if you want to share your slides with any number of people and those people have access to the net. I can think of many uses for this, from education, where teachers or students can upload their presentations for use with their project work, or for corporate, where you might have to present your slides to people who are in a different geographical location from you.

Personally, the only gripe I have with Slideshare so far is that it does not support direct importation of Apple Keynote slides. The only way is by exporting to .ppt from within Keynote, and uploading as Powerpoint slides. The problem is that Keynote makes such beautiful presentations, while Powerpoints are truly fugly.

Sign up and take a look, I think many people will like it. =)
