Google switches on Presentation, its competitor to Microsoft's PowerPoint

Here is a link to the announcement on the Official Google Blog about Presentation, which is part of the Google Docs family, and which offers a simple web-based "slide" creator. Expect Google to very soon launch its wiki, based on Jotspot (acquired by Google last year). The arguments for educational providers to give all their staff and learners Google accounts are getting steadily more persuasive, even without taking account of the potentially massive savings to be made in infrastructure and support costs.
