280Slides is a new presentation tool that allows you to make portable media-rich slide shows. Unlike PowerPoint, with 280Slides, you can access your presentation from any computer with internet, and because it is web based, the addition of media to any slide is a breeze. You can easily search for images on the web that you can double-click or drag-and-drop to add to your slides, or you can use photos from Flickr, or just upload your own. You can also quickly add videos from Vimeo and Youtube in the same fashion. If you need to actually have your presentation built on PowerPoint, you can download your slides so that they work directly with that software. You can easily email your work or embed it on a website. There are many themes and layouts to choose from, and adding content isn’t as challenging as it can sometimes be when dealing with PowerPoint. For an easier way to create professional looking, media-rich, portable presentations, use the new 280Slides.

|
|
How will they set themselves apart more from the other slide show, presentation type sites already available? Will they add other features such as the ability to create graphs and charts, which are often necessary for people using presentation software?
