Part of the reinvention is finding ways to make your life easier - and cheaper. Sliderocket is a new online service that helps you build and share PowerPoint-style presentations for free. And the presentations are slick.

Suppose you want to share a presentation with your managers or stations in different markets. Currently, there are mostly only paid choices. While Sliderocket won’t do all the things that, say, WebEx will do, it’s a “good enough” tool for sharing presentations.

Check out the product tour, itself a presentation deck you can control. You’ll see the many transitions and effects you can choose. Sliderocket also comes with clip art, and has the ability to import video from YouTube. You can upload your own video and images as well.

The transition effects rival Apple’s Keynote software and outshine Microsoft’s PowerPoint. You can embed the presentation on your site or blog if you choose to enable sharing. It’s a social PowerPoint.

It has integrated remote meeting software, so you can share your presentation with employees offsite. When you’re done, it will even give you some basic analytics and tell you who watched.

You can even watch a Sliderocket presentation on any WAP enabled mobile device.

The features go on and on. I’m not a Sliderocket salesman. I just like to find cool tools that will make your life a little easier. This is one such tool. It’s still in private beta, but you can sign up for an invite, and they are handing them out pretty freely. Sign up and play. I think you’ll be impressed. (Link)
