Google Announces PowerPoint Presentation Capability in Google Docs

As many know, yesterday was a rather important day for Google Docs when they announced that they are pregnant with a baby. Well, not really, but the Google Docs and Spreadsheets family intends to branch out into the world of presentations. Yeah, that's right, a DigitalPoint Forums member noted that this is Google's PowerPoint alternative. WebmasterWorld and Search Engine Land have coverage as well.

What does the community think?

It's great for collaboration:

Might be very useful for collaborative presentations (no more emailing ppt file around).

But Google is expanding way too fast and might as well soon have its own operating system (which isn't entirely farfetched):

Can't believe why google want to spread its business to every area!

may be next day G will have their own Word, Excel, .... and then OS

What do you expect now? Anxious for them to give birth? Forum discussion continues at DigitalPoint Forums and WebmasterWorld.
