This is great. I'll definitely be a user. I've never been a big fan of creating Documents or Spreadsheets, but Google Docs has me creating some useful stuff, now that will include Slides. A very nice addition to my Firefox OS.
I did find it incongruous to see "You can start new online documents by emailing them directly to this email address: <long string>@prod.writely.com"
Damn it. I want to email upload to The Google, not Writely.

I saw what Zenter had before, and Presently incorporates little to none of Zenter's awesomeness. Next version...
I agree. I met Wayne & Robbie at a YC tea (the day after a rehearsal demo, which I heard they rocked), and immediately fell in love with the way Zenter actually leveraged the web to make presentation software BETTER.
Yeah, Zenter was much nicer. Unfortunately things move slower in big companies.
I love it. I haven't seen the old Zenter, so I'm not sure what to compare it to. I made and published a presentation, then added a slide. It took a refresh, but this is why online documents are awesome. You can click send and publish the doc, and still edit it.
Too bad a loaded presentation requires a refresh to get the updates. The spreadsheet is really live.
Also, it would be nice to get a web-cam mic input as a presenter.

wow. after making a simple presentation with this thing, i don't want to stab anyone to death the way i do whenever i use PowerPoint or OpenOffice.org (i always say fuck it and use LaTeX/S5 instead). thanks, google!
You really need to try using Apple's KeyNote. I haven't stabbed anyone to death ever since I discovered it :D
It would be interesting to know how Yahoo and MS responds - I wonder someone like ZOHO is still not yet bought - may be too expensive but definitely to look forward for as they also have project management (like MS Project) and CRM tools and apps ...
Go Zenter!
