A Google Presentation Example

I worked up a brief example of a Google presentation and created a link to it. Let's see how this turns out. It seems to work well, but try it for yourself. I don't know that a Google presentation has the flexibility that one such as PowerPoint has, but if you don't have access to PowerPoint it could be a fair substitute. There are many of the same features that PowerPoint has, you just have to get used to using them, and they are stored for you and can be accessed later at Google Doc's. Once you have your own Google account you will have access to these features.

About Presentations

Presentations, whether from Google or PowerPoint or any other brand of presentation software, can enhance your job performance and credibility. It depends on what type of profession that you are in as to whether or not presentations are very important to you. The knowledge worker is most apt to benefit from presentation software. Providing a clear and concise presentation to your boss that outlines your ideas will enhance your credibility with him or her. If you are in school, presentations may be an important part of your performance grade. Presentations allow you to format your ideas in such a way that they become more clear and concise to the audience that you show the presentation to.
The Google presentations are part of Google Doc's. You'll have to go to Google Doc's and select down to presentations. From that point you can choose to narrow your template selection down to Hottest, Most Users, Highest Rating, by Category, or by language.
PowerPoint is part of Microsoft office suite. You will have basic presentation templates and you can go to the Microsoft website and choose from many more templates.
