I've been learning how to use Prezi, and I've created my first Prezi. It outlines the perfect way plan a party. This is obviously not a true algorithm because it is a linear path and does not tell you what to do at each junction or step of planning a guy party. Regardless, I am impressed at Prezi's ability to display content. It is a remake of PowerPoint with a twist. I really enjoy how your layout and sizes can help add meaning to what you are trying to do. I tried to use size and movement to help give the presentation some life.
Here is a plus to Prezi: if you have university email, you can get an educational license and enjoy a number of the great Prezi features for free. I would recommend that everybody at least try this new presentation tool. I am going to try and use it for a military briefing on Friday. I'll let you know what they think.
On the one hand, I really like the Prezi way of showing stuff, but I almost get dizzy watching stuff twist around! How to get creative without getting dizzy!!??
@hsmaggie you are right about the getting dizzy part. I could have done a better job of making the prezi more "zoom-in, zoom-out" rather than "twisting-and-turning". It is very possible to be creative and not dizzy... just avoid making large viewing angle changes.

Great Job! That is so much cooler than Power Point. Thanks so much for introducing this new tool to me.
