I was bored surfing through the web the other day and came across some very peculiar pieces of mind. Some independent reviewers give high praises to SlideBoom. Here are some of the links you may find curious:

http://presentationslides.blogspot.com/
http://zaidlearn.blogspot.com/2008/09/amazing-free-e-learning-ebooks.html
These observations could be interesting and helpful for everyone who looks for the best place for sharing presentations on the web. No doubt, it is very special for the whole team to get feedbacks of this kind. We hope that not only those who write articles or blogs think it’s requisite what we do. It is very inspiring for all of us.
And no, we didn’t pay them :).

SlideBoom automatically adds a “related presentations” screen to the slideshow you embed into your blog. It allows the viewers to replay, share or rate the presentation they’ve just watched. It also shows other presentations with a similar topic. But what if you don’t need all that?
We’ve got a solution for you! Just do the following:
Before embedding a corresponding code into your blog, change an “autoOpenShareScreen” setting from 1 to 0, as shown:
If you had <object … autoOpenShareScreen=1“></embed></object>,
then change it to <object … autoOpenShareScreen=0“></embed></object>.
And you there’s nothing to bother your viewers attention anymore!

SlideBoom offers you a new option that limits an access to your presentation.
All you need to do is to share a secret link with potential viewers of your creation.
To generate this link check “Give me a secret url” and press “Save” button in editing window:
Copy the url code and send it out to whoever you want to show you presentation to. It’s that easy!
Important! Make sure “I want my presentation to be available to anyone online” option is not ticked in the same editing window. It disables a secret url code creating, and your presentation will be public.
