Google is edging further and further into Microsoft’s bread-and-butter office software with the launch of Google Presentations. Presentations is part of the online Docs suite (which already includes a word processor and spreadsheet maker). I loaded up the program and quickly went about creating a slide. The software also imports .ppt files, and allows online collaboration. A “souped up” version will be sold for $50 to governments, businesses and the like.
