PowerPoint Anywhere: Transforming Presentations on Mobile Devices

Now, PowerPoint works on tablets, on phones, it all. They also have some sort of basic version of PowerPoint for watches. Okay, so.

Microsoft, let me step back a minute there and just toss out a why? Why does someone want PowerPoint on their phone? Is it because they're traveling, they come in late to a meeting, and they want to continue to do a presentation just from the phone? Part of me is excited about the innovation, and a part of me is a pull because a pet peeve of mine I can't stand when I see a speaker holding a phone and looking at it for notes. It's like, how is that really better than having, you know, a sheet of paper just on the table? But you tell me why? Why does someone want a PowerPoint deck or the program on their phone?

The important part to, you know, notice here is it's not that PowerPoint is on the desktop or on the phone. The more important part is that PowerPoint as an ecosystem is everywhere. It's omnipresent. So you continue using PowerPoint on the laptop, but if you are on your big screen, connect your projector, do a webinar, as you're doing, okay, but suddenly you want to make one change and you realize you don't want to boot up the laptop. It's on your OneDrive or on any other system, take it on your phone, change that one figure. It's so much quicker and faster than doing it otherwise, okay.
