Email and its Place
Courtesy of Annette over at Interactions, I came upon Matt Moores slideshow about email. As Annette say it is simple yet very sophisticated presentation. It shows how far we have come with our cyber forms of communication.
This presentation uses another handy programme called SlideShare that allows you to share your presentations with the world letting your ideas reach a broad audience. You can share publicly or privately.
More and more people turning to web based programmes. Most are free, and offer a freedom of not always being tied to your own laptop or computer.
The main contender in free web based programmes is Google. The Labs section lists all the programmes that are available, some are still in beta but are worth exploring and having fun with.
A site I found Zoho.com also offers a superb range of mostly free programmes from the main office suite; wordprocessor spreadsheets, presentation and database programmes to email, organisers, invoices, CRM and project management programmes to name but a few.
