Slide share a presentations storehouse
We are all busy in making slide presentations to convey our views or put our points across. But quite often we find that whatever we are presenting, has already been known or presented somewhere else. Every new slide presentation should not go about the task as if to reinvent the wheel. There should be a storehouse or a database where slide presentations can be stored and indexed based on categories so that any one who is making a new slide presentation can look to add value to what has been presented elsewhere and not just go about duplicating the work. 
Slide share is one such portal where slide presentations are stacked categories and subject wise. These are neatly indexed for the use of all concerned. The portal is trying to carve out a niche for itself by fulfilling to the demands of professionals, students and industry captains. This portal is not for the professionals who are very secretive about their work and don’t want to share with others who are in same vocation. Knowledge as it is said grows when it is shared. Therefore, ready made slide presentations made available at this portal would definitely help professionals and students alike. I for one, have been able to locate quite a few interesting presentations on the topics of my domain. Presently portal accepts slide presentations in ppt, pps & pot (PowerPoint), pdf & odp (OpenOffice). It is not accepting documents in pptx or docx(Office 2007) documents. This is one known issue which Slide Share has to deal with.
