Share Presentations/Slideshows in10

Yes, its one of the most common problems faced by everyday techies. You have a presentation that you need to share and you don’t know where and how to do so. Microsofts PPS format does solve some of those issues but you still need your own webserver. In come these handy tools. Let me remind you these tools can also be used to edit, publish or embed your slideshows- you can even create new slideshows online.

  was my first pick cause of its complete office suite which the other products dont offer. SO not onyl can you make slideshows but you can also use their word processor, spreadsheet and calenderign facilities. Zoho lets you import slideshows from ppt and other formats and even lets you edit them after you have imported. Here is the link to my presentation. You can also embed the presentation in your blog or site using an iframe script.

I had to find a presentation that I had made, so I chose a presentation I had used in under graduate course. It has of course been made through  MS Powerpoint and then imported to zohoshow, but zoho is capable of making better presentation.

was ofcourse my second. This has got to be one of the most widely used services to publish presentations online. Slideshare has built a community around these products and is also more social with youtube like interface. Its a great way to share your presentations. You can import the regular ppt, pps, open office odp and even pdf’s. If you are a wordpress user like me you have a special embed code for the same.

  provides most of the features that slideshare provides and the regular import, embed etc. I have to mention though that you cannot edit presentations. Its only meant for imports and publishes. But there are security levels and 200mb of free space.

I couldn’t leave out thumbstacks, my old favorite. I had used this product for its sheer brilliance. The interface is still pretty raw and the product itself is buggy, thanks to its alpha tag , but the product is great for its purpose. The collaborativ remote presentation manager is the best feature. You sit and control a remote slideshow, you can beat such  a feature. People familiar with MS liveMeeting will know what I am talking about.
