Timeglider JS is a zooming, panning data-driven timeline widget written in Javascript. This widget is the core of our our timeline authoring and publishing app, and can be integrated into any HTML application environment. Timelines can be zoomed by dragging the vertical slider at right: up for zooming in (less time shown) and down for zooming out (more time shown). The mousewheel also works as a zoom controller.
A quick example: Say your presentation is centered around 3 keywords or themes. These can be displayed as really huge items with further information on those themes much tinier and clustered around the keywords. As you go through your presentation you could zoom further down in which ever direction and angle. Prezi’s interface design for creating presentations is a breeze to learn and use thanks to very little noise and a few but powerful options (to adjust size for example).
UPDATE: Check out the Simple HTML Slides project page for more information. Powerpoint, and to a lesser extent Apple’s Keynote, have a vise-like grip on the psyche of a huge percentage of the computer users on the planet. In business, government and education it’s difficult to get through the day without encountering at least one Powerpoint presentation, and we’ve all faced the dreaded “Death by Powerpoint” decks of a hundred slides crammed with 8 point type. Sites like EducationWorld.com are chock-full of articles written by educators showing teachers how to integrate Powerpoint into the curriculum . Alas, many teachers and curriculum directors think teaching students how to use Powerpoint is an important part of “teaching 21st century technology skills,” while teaching the fundamentals of open web technologies gets almost no attention.
