PowerPoint is almost a DE-FACTO standard for making and running presentation almost anywhere on the Blue Planet. And yes indeed Office 2007 PowerPoint is rich in UI and features. But OpenOffice isn’t far behind as well, with it’s version 3 just popping out from the oven this October. But what if now that you’re tired of making the same old presentations with the same old templates available on Microsoft Office? Well here comes SlideRocket to ...

可能對於常去家樂福的讀者而言，應該是知道這樣的事情了。不過對於筆者來說，聽到這樣的事情，還是出乎意料。我想，這跟玩具反斗城要賣iPod與Eee PC一般，都是認為自己有足夠的客群，來擴大業務。不過家樂福本身有賣手機，若再搭上門號，很有可能衝擊傳統手機通路。從官網可以看得出來，採用的是中華電信門號。預付卡、終身免月租、搭門號手機統統都可以來。此外，以行銷角度來看，家樂福有龐大的會員群，可以玩的東西更多，利用自身通路，可以有更多的優惠，想想的確很有機會。搞不好日後還會有其他大賣場跟進也說不定？

Filed under: Laptops Having been privy to a few leaked Dell PowerPoint presentations in our day, we can say without reservation that they know how to blow that stuff out. Roadmaps? Charts? Bullet points? They've got it all, and this new Latitude E series presentation is no different. Sure, the subject matter is a little dry: reliable, boringbooks for businesses, but there are a few gems in here. The basic thing to get down is ...
