Adobe Presenter is a plug-in for Powerpoint for recording, editing and synchronizing digital audio with PowerPoint...

All that is needed to create a presentation is PowerPoint, the Presenter plug-in, and a microphone or headset connected to your computer. Content in a presentation can include audio, Flash video (FLV format), images (JPEG files), synchronized animations, Captivate files, and interactive quizzes and surveys.

When published, presentations are converted to Flash (swf) presentations which can be uploaded to a web site, into Blackboard, or saved to a CD-ROM.

Viewing a Breeze presentation requires only a computer with speakers or headset, a web browser and the Flash plug-in.
