\\\\n \ \\n \ server interaction.\\nPrezi isn\'t perfect, of course. I\'ve made several feature requests, and have a list of others. There are the small requests, like wanting higher quality images and a code style for embedded snippets, and there are also the big picture requests. I want to be able to link prezis inside of prezis, so that I can make \"components\" of presentations, and easily zoom from one to the other. I want to be able to create multiple paths for a given prezi, so that I can skip over bits for some audiences, and emphasize them for others. Hell, I\'d love if I could have one canvas that had every bit of possible content on a topic, and I could use that one canvas for 20 different presentations. I don\'t know that Prezi will ever implement these ideas, but I have more faith in them doing so than any other presentation tool, since they are making a point of thinking different.\\n\\nGenerally, I just love the fact that somebody is thinking different about presentation tools. There are so many people out there that are giving presentations every day, so as a society, we owe it to ourselves to invest more thought into how we do presentations. That\'s why I also like events like Ignite and Webjam, because they are challenging people to rethink the timing aspect of presentations.\\n\\n(Not to talk about Wave all the time, but-)\\n\\nMy love for Prezi is similar to my love for Wave. Prezi is re-thinking presentations. Wave is re-thinking communication. Prezi gives me a blank canvas that can turn into a presentation of any shape. Wave gives me a blank wave that can turn into a document or conversation of any structure. Both of them are unfinished, but both have a bright future, and even if they don\'t succeed, they\'re successfully challenging the traditions of today.', 'tags':'prezi,powerpoint,ppt,presentation,edtech,tools', 'first_user_id':3777335, 'first_user_name':'mhsbcs1', 'first_user_real_name':'Christopher Lee', 'last_user_id':3777335, 'last_user_name':'mhsbcs1', 'last_user_real_name':'Christopher Lee', 'user_count':1, 'p_c_count':1, 'ann_count':0, 'i_c_count':0, 'page_comments':[],'annotations':[]} var p_c = {'id':2674018, 'group_id':2283, 'link_id':129874604, 'g_l_id':'2283-129874604', 'user_id':3777335, 'user_name':'mhsbcs1', 'user_real_name':'Christopher Lee', 'content':'Why I Like Prezi\\nIn my life, I have given a *lot* of presentations. In high school, they were presentations on group projects. In university, they were presentations on research projects. At Google, they\'re presentations on how to use our APIs. When I first started giving presentations, I used Powerpoint, like everyone else. But I kept thinking there must be a better way, and I experimented with other options - flash interfaces, interactive Javascript apps. Then I discovered Prezi, and it has become my presentation tool of choice.\\n\\nPrezi is an online tool for creating presentations - but it\'s not just a Powerpoint clone, like the Zoho or Google offering. When you first create a Prezi, you\'re greeted with a blank canvas and a small toolbox. You can write text, insert images, and draw arrows. You can draw frames (visible or hidden) around bits of content, and then you can define a path from one frame to the next frame. That path is your presentation. It\'s like being able to draw your thoughts on a whiteboard, and then instructing a camera where to go and what to zoom into. It\'s a simple idea, but I love it. Here\'s why:\\n\\nIt forces me to \"shape\" my presentation. A slide deck is always linear in form, with no obvious structure of ideas inside of it. Each of my Prezis has a structure, and each structure is different. The structure is visual, but it supports a conceptual structure. One structure might be 3 main ideas, with rows of ideas for each one. Another might be 1 main idea, with a circular branching of subideas. Having a structure helps me to have more of a point to my presentations, and to realize the core ideas of them.\\nIt makes it easy to go from brainstorming stage to presentation stage, all in the same tool. I can write a bunch of thoughts, insert some images, and easily move them around, cluster them, re-order them, etc. I can figure out the structure of my presentation by looking at what I have laid out, and seeing how they fit together.
