You know the old saying, "Power corrupts, but PowerPoint corrupts absolutely," right? And you know that Google's motto is "Don't be evil," right?
So what are we to make of this headline?
According to various other sources, the code name for the project is "Presently," which is said to be a pun on their on-line word processor, once called "Writely."
I can think of at least one person who would have wished that they call the new software "Currently," instead. Unless, of course, they meant "coming soon," and not "now."

Great, another crap program that anyone with a computer will think makes their designs worthy of publication but, in reality, doesn't and the design work is something below crap. Just more work for me trying to salvage work from programs that shouldn't be used for anything beyond a cute lil' slideshow with some pie charts.
You're probably right about the continued profusion of ugly crap, Sornie, but at least the results will be less bloated and easier to share. Or so I hope.
