Google Launches Powerpoint Competition, Web Ads for Mobile Devices

fullstop writes "Google has finally launched their online presentation tool to complete its office offerings at Google Docs." Relatedly several users have also mentioned that Google plans to start selling ads for cell phone-targeted websites. "The company said that its new product, AdSense for Mobile, would establish a cellphone advertising network in which Google would match ads with the content of mobile Web pages, much as it does online. Other Internet giants, including Yahoo and AOLTime Warner, as well as some start-ups, have also created advertising networks tailored for mobile phones."

Come on editors! It's even underlined for you as a hyperlink!

Either that or the mail-order brides business is booming far more than we originally expected! ;)

As you can see...

...the example presentation is Proprietary and Confidential. So don't go spreading this link across the Internet! Especially not on one of those high traffic sites like Slashdot.

Probably a Slashdot wedding, where iPhones are thrown instead of confetti.

Wait, did I say a Slashdot wedding? Who am I kidding...

imagine yourself at a presentation in front of your bosses and network dies or google returns an error "oops our server made a booboo"

that would be fairly embarrassing

Powerpoint Competition !?!?!

Is it just me or did someone else read that as a "Google Powerpoint Competition". For a second there I lost all respect for Google thinking they were hosting a contest on who can make the prettiest set of slides :D.
