5. Comparison I worked on my Power point presentation and it was a lot of fun. It took be back sorry Paul but to when I was a kid in elementary school in 1979. It was fun to pull up some of that older stuff and to see how it has changed in 30 years. When I tried to upload it to Google docs I uploaded it fine but all of the transitions on my pictures that I had didn’t work. Also the slides natural layout was a bit smaller and it didn’t set up the exact same. I think what I learned is what you said that I would just keep it simple. If you are going to share a Power Point on Google docs then you need to just keep it simple and put in the basic text. Don’t worry about all of the extras transitions, pics, video’s, music, etc… Sure make me wonder where technology will be in another 30 years and since I think we are moving at a much faster pace then we were then.
