11.5: Thing 9

280 slides is a GREAT product, especially since you can import your powerpoint slides and not lose anything. Every now and then we have issues where it's a different version of powerpoint between home and the teacher's classroom or the library. 280 slides would make it easier for those kids, no doubt. And of course, don't forget Google's version of powerpoint. There's no excuse now. Slideshare, like Google, etc., would allow multiple students to work and collaborate and synthesize single presentations. That is probably the most important aspect - some of these products are sleeker than powerpoint, i.e. the graphics are more professional looking but really when you get down to brass tacks, the main thing in my opinion is accessibility.
