PowerPoint is so 2007. The new big thing in presentations, whether it’s for a class, a business meeting, or a lecture to your child on why they can’t borrow the car Friday night, is web presentations. These innovative and attractive shows can be created on sites like Prezi.com, Sliderocket.com, and Metoshow.com. For brevity’s sake, we’ll use Prezi.com as an example.One benefit of web presentations is their ease of use. You can host your presentation on the web site itself. Of course, this has obvious benefits for college students who may roll out of bed and head to class on presentation day without thinking to grab their flash drive. For professional presenters, though, it not only means that not only can you simply show up, log on, and access your show, but that in many cases you can also share the presentation with other clients online. For businesses that often network with clients or branches in other locations, this feature’s rewards are undeniable.

You can also choose to pay more to make your prezi private, or to create a prezi offline in areas without wireless internet access. (more…)
