As we reported back in April, Google had been planning to launch a PowerPoint killer an addition to Google Docs. Well, they did it. Google Presentations is the online collaborative slide show application, which launced yesterday. Here is a good summary of some of the features.
“Death by Google Presentations” just doesn’t sound as good as “Death by PowerPoint.” (Special thanks to Dilbert):
But just think, with online collaboration the whole premeditation and conspiracy of preparing slide shows with this killer app may result in federal — if not international – offenses.
In all seriousness, we wonder if law firms will use a suite of Docs, Spreadsheets, and now Presentations on the web. Will security be too much of an issue? Or will we continue to send drafts around via email? Is there a place for a secure, web-based, collaboration suite so that law firms with multiple offices can feel safe about real-time, online collaboration? Is anyone doing this? Thoughts? Please comment and let us know.
