With the new Prezi for iPad app, you can easily show prezis wherever your ideas take you. Instead of clicking on buttons, you can simply pan and pinch to zoom and move around the prezi – making it even easier to bring your ideas into everyday discussions.
To get started, sign up for an account at Prezi.com and create a prezi. When you’re ready to show it, just login to your Prezi account through the iPad app and select the prezi.
Why use Prezi on the iPad?
- show your prezis on a portable, lightweight device
- put ideas at your fingertips by leveraging the iPad’s touchscreen experience
- keep the focus on your prezi by avoiding the distractions of a browser environment

Prezi is an AMAZING alternative to PowerPoint and other slide-based presentation methods. Just yesterday, I tried showing a Prezi that I had created to a colleague on my iPad, and I was disappointed to see that it would not work.
Today I get an email that there is an iPad app for Prezi, and now, life is great! If you have not tried Prezi, give it a shot - you may never open PowerPoint again!
More on Prezi Meeting. They have kept it very simple and straight forward. When in Prezi editing mode, just click Meeting --> Invite, and you are presented with a link that you can share with your collaborators.
You can also create a shared Presentation link that you can send out to view a Prezi on separate machines anywhere in the world together. The only thing about this that I don't really like is that the Presentation link expires after only 10 minutes... I guess this is for security, or that they don't want people randomly joining in a Prezi a year after the fact, but it would be nice to have a permanent presentation link to post to a web site for training purposes.
Great stuff from Prezi.
I liked Prezi before, but this is fantastic. I love showing teachers and students the collaborative power of using Google Presentations. This takes that collaboration to another level.
As the video says... Thanks Prezi!
