In my reading of Webware tonight I discover a new service on the web called SlideRocket. It is a “new” presentation tool and while it is still in Beta one can sign up and give it a try. I did however because of the publicity that it received I was informed that it would take 15 to 20 minutes to process my request. Not a problem, I’m not going anywhere since walking is not one of those big things that I am doing these days. I grok waiting.
If you go to the web site, www.sliderocket.com, and check it out you will find a neat demo that only takes a few minutes to preview and then you can sign up for the Beta version if you would like.
One other link from Webware is an article that discusses Microsoft’s new FolderShare which is part of the Windows Live Freeware. There is a good write up on it at the Webware blog on FolderShare.
As for Microsoft’s folder share it the closest thing I have seen to a Cloud SharePoint with it’s ability to share files across many computers. This would be a great small business tool. The way we are progressing is that small business can have the same tools that big business does and be able to work on many platforms at the same time. Sharing files, thoughts, and idea’s are what can make a business go.
FolderShare as well as Office Live both of which have sharing features as well as Microsoft’s Mesh. One of these will hit and will work. I am reading more and more about people using Mesh and that is a good thing – IMHO
