I just came to know about this tool in the first month in Adelaide when I went to Flinders University to join a seminar on Medicine organised by my cousin. I was amazed by a presentation which looks like a PowerPoint one but I knew it completely was not. I wondered if it was MS PowerPoint 2010. I have pushed myself to find out what it is. By chance, today, when I was looking for a website on ICT in ELT, reading an article from http://blogs.ihes.com/tech-elt/ and then I found out it is PREZI. http://prezi.com/learn/ "Prezi is a web-based presentation application and storytelling tool that uses a single canvas instead of traditional slides. Text, images, videos and other presentation objects are placed on the infinite canvas and grouped together in frames. The canvas allows users to create non-linear presentations, where they can zoom in and out of a visual map. A path through different objects and frames can be defined, representing the order of the information to be presented. The presentation can be developed in a browser window, then downloaded so that an internet connection is not needed when showing the presentation." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prezi)
It is worth spending time on this new authoring tool.
