The Prezi revolution and imminent death of Powerpoint.

Prezi the most thought out advancement in presentation software in years has taken the presentation community by storm.

Powerpoint, the very word instantly brings thoughts of boredom and despair.  Boredeom because I immediately know I'm going to mentally check out.  Despair because a Powerpoint usually means I have to be present for this "revealing" of information.

Ok, for those of us who try to make them fun (some are better than others) I'll give you a break.  However, why are we trying to make them fun?  Because most of us would rather be on the clean up crew after Mardi Gras rather than try to engage with a boring, linear tool called Powerpoint.

There is hope however.  Allow me to introduce you to the wonderful world of Prezi.com.  The cooler and hipper tool for getting the non linear nerve synapsis called information that resides in your brain into the brains of your viewers.
Don't just take my word for it though.  Look at these tweets from people who are using and loving the Prez----

With all the buzz where is the beef?  To put it simply, Prezi allows you to add text, images, videos, and more into a canvas.  The unique feature is the zooming capability.  It allows you to see the big picture but to zoom in on details to see how critical pieces of information interconnect.  It is a wholistic approach that is combines the left and right lobes for bihemispherical integration.

You can expect a unique and engaging learning experience.  It'll be interesting to see how the creative juices flow as this tool evolves.
Prezi- you have my vote.  Keep up the good work!
