From the software labs at Microsoft comes pptPlex, a PowerPoint 2007 plug-in that provides a new (and improved? You be the judge) way of presenting slides. Here’s the scoop:

This plug-in allows you to arrange slides on a canvas then zoom between the slides during the presentation. You can move around the canvas and show groups of slides, individual slides, or even zoom in to show a particular section of a slide.

The zoom feature in particular sounds pretty cool. Of course, a picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is worth even more — so peep the demo up above. What do you think? Neat stuff or not all that useful? Hit the Comments and opine. [via Office Tweaks]
