Not everyone has the luxury of being able to install Microsoft PowerPoint on their laptop. In a corporate environment, every license costs. However, most corporate laptops are restricted so that you can't simply just install your own software, so OpenOffice is out, too. This can leave you with a dilemma when you realise you need to pitch for a project and really need to produce a professional-level presentation.

280 Slides is an excellent alternative. It's web technology that enables you to create a presentation from your browser, without having to install desktop software on your computer. As everyone has access to a web browser, using 280 Slides is an easy way of creating your presentation, quickly. It ships with some basic themes to get you started and you can save your presentation as a PowerPoint presentation, if you need to access it from your desktop PC at a later date.
