Comments on: Google prepping presentation product

Google is apparently working on a PowerPoint competitor, Presently.

Death by Presently instead of PowerPoint

Always another way to bore an audience to death. But I would use it. Way back when I was an early fan and adopted PP, but in recent years I try to provide a PowerPoint free zone for my audiences. They seem to enjoy the change. But having a web-based presentation as described in this review would be neat feature. Doug C. www.dougcaldwell.net

PowerPoint killer?

You mean THAT useless waste of code hasn't died of Old Age already?

Nope, sorry.

Nope, it's actually the most used of its kind in the whole world and actually much praised by reviews (specially the 2007 version).

CNET prepping anti-Microsoft review

PowerPoint killer? Would like to see that, a free web-based application killing an estabilished and actually good commercial product.

Not a killer

I agree, this isn't a PowerPoint killer. It clearly will have acceptance and usage, but it is crippled in comparison, it is weak in comparison, and it is at best, a form of use competition. The two products if displayed in a Vinn diagram would only overlap a little. Two almost separate categories in my opinion. I would opt to use both.
