A simple question: Why?

"necessity is the mother of invention " -Plato.

Why use this as appose to traditional powerpoint?

Traditional powerpoint has become bulky and outplayed (especially if you are emailing a large powerpoint attachment).

Its 2013...there is no need to be using powerpoint especially when you can put this deck on its own URL and share it much faster than an attachment.

I'm a programmer and prefer using HTML5 based presentation libraries, but for the average user creating a powerpoint and emailing it is simpler and easier than this sort of thing.

I've never had a problem with the ppt being to big. And i've never run into a problem sharing ppts or getting them from a PM if ever necessary.
