Thing #19 - Presentation

I went into Googledocs and created a presentation using one of their templates. I was going to embed it in this blog. However, after spending 2 hours on it I have nothing to show for my time. The application kept locking up my computer, which was very frustrating. I was hitting "save" every few seconds because I never knew when it would freeze up. When I finally got it done, I embedded it in a blog post. However, when I tried to view it almost all of the images I'd put in were gone. I closed out Googledocs and went back in to try to copy the html again, but now the images are gone from the presentation also! I know that they were there originally because I saved it to my computer as a powerpoint first before trying to post it to my blog, and the powerpoint is still there and looks fine. I'd go in to Googledocs and start over but I don't think it's worth it. I guess you could say that this was a learning experience, but what I learned was that I have no use for Googledocs! The concept sounds great, but the actuality left a lot to be desired as far as I was concerned.
