Show HN: Haiku Deck - A Simple iPad App for Making Beautiful Presentations

We built Haiku Deck because we hated boring PowerPoint presentations. We stripped out most of the features of a traditional presentation software and built it from the ground up to be optimized for content-creation on a tablet. Decks can be shared online, and also exported to PowerPoint or pdf for offline viewing.

To get a sense of what a typical deck looks like, here's a sample presentation that showcases some of my favorite quotes from the amazing @shit_hn_says twitter account: http://www.haikudeck.com/p/aP4taPvt7w/shit-hn-says

Would love to hear what you guys think.

That looks like a pretty cool looking app. I really like the design of your web site & app. You say you're not focusing on 'boring PowerPoint presentations', it seems that most of your examples are more like photo slideshows. It might help to show some more traditional style presentations in there as well.

Thanks, that's a great suggestion. We're getting some pretty diverse decks that our users have started to create, we'll start featuring those in the gallery soon.
