Diigo Previews WebSlides at Office 2.0 2007
Diigo previewed something very cool at Office 2.0. WebSlides is a browser-based player that displays live Web pages with integrated annotation, sticky notes, and highlights as a portable and interactive slideshow. WebSlides also allow people to record a narration track and also incorporate background music to make the presentation even more engaging.
To experience WebSlides, users simply collect and organize any set of links into a list, and add background music or voice narration. By clicking “Play,” the list transforms into a slideshow bringing Web pages and user comments to life. The player can then be sent to friends and colleagues and also posted on Websites and blogs. Viewers of the slideshow can interact on the slides through highlights and sticky notes directly on each page, without installing any software.
This incredibly easy-to-use web-based software has many potential applications such as:
- Create a guided tour for any website
- Show a list of houses to real estate clients
- Bundle important course resources for students
- Show your favorite places to see when visiting a new city
- Provide a quick briefing, or a simple tutorial or guided tour on any subject

Diigo is a powerful, yet incredibly simple to use research tool that allows people to annotate, bookmark, highlight, save, and clip Web content that matters to them, for future reference or to share with others. They can also comment and add sticky notes directly on each web page, which are viewable by other Diigo users when visiting the same pages.
Diigo also created a Webslide for all Office 2.0 sponsors.
