I was going through some online training for Office 2007 and I had an idea. I would like to see Google presentation be able to consume a rss feed. Think how easy this would be. I could use wordpress to prepare the content for a presentation. Then I could go to Google docs, create a presentation and tell it to grab the content from my rss feed. This would allow a few things.
1) I could use the powerful tools in wordpress to prepare content.
2) I could then present it in a presentation format using Google Docs.
I think they could create specific markup to ensure it would work better in Presentation. Your web browsers would ignore it.
I then think they could focus more on the ability to create nice templates. I feel thisĀ is where Microsoft is trying to fight back on Google. I know some of my friends are surprised I would be taking Office training. I have been using Office, since there has been an office. I have never had any training in Office. The 2007 version is so different, so odd that I have to take the training. It is the opposite of intuitive if you have been an office user. Open Office never had these problems. I picked it up in minutes. Google docs, is just like office 95. I think MS is trying to compete with Google so much they completely want to seperate themselves. I would have not bothered with learning it, but my company uses it as a standard. The look si also so much superior now. I feel like I have a Mac LOL.
