- You can quickly get a presentation…up and running no matter where you are.…All you need is a web browser.…Here's a very high-level overview…of how Google Slides can replace PowerPoint.…To create a slide, click the red "new" button…and select "Google Slides."…The new slides will open and you'll be…prompted to choose a theme.…You can change the theme and change the slide size.…In this case, I'll stick with the defaults…and click the blue okay button.…From here, you can give your presentation a name,…which is the equivalent of doing…a "file + save as" in PowerPoint.…
I'll click "untitled presentation" on the left-hand side.…I'll give my presentation a name…and click the blue okay button.…Right away, you can click in the first slide…and start typing your text.…Creating a new slide is easy.…Just click the plus sign or the arrow next to the plus sign…on the top left-hand side of the screen…to choose a new slide and a layout that you want to use.…In this case, I'll choose a title and a body slide.…You can add some more text.…
