Browser as a Platform

I’ve been quite anxious to test this out. I was supposed to be on the beta list, but I never got to test it out. SlideRocket is a presentation tool, much like Microsoft’s PowerPoint.

On their homepage they say “SlideRocket vs. PowerPoint – Like with bullets instead of pebbles.” If you haven’t seen the demo its capabilities, check it out – it looks great!

I’ll write some additional thoughts once I have time to create my own presentation with it. 

Excerpts from their email:

GENERAL AVAILABILITY
We’re announcing the general availability of SlideRocket for individuals and organizations which ends our incredibly successful beta and means we’re officially open for business. 

PRICING

We’ve announced three tiers of pricing, FreeIndividual, and Business. For all the details and value offered in each tier please visit the pricing page of our web site. We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

COLLABORATION FEATURES

SlideRocket has some great new features that allow you tocollaborate with your peers. SlideRocket takes the “labor” out of Collaboration and empowers teams to make great presentations together.

This blog will explore the thoughts and ideas of browser as a platform (BAAP). The implication is that potentially, the software based OS (Windows, MAC, etc), can go away and will be replace by a Browser based OS. We already see the trend with applications such as Google Docs , and SlideRocket that are replacements for Microsoft Office. We will review products and applications that are trying to replace desktop applications.
