Keynote is a new presentation tool developed at the behest of SteveJobs himself, sporting Quartz-based transitions and effects.
Besides importing PowerPoint presentations, it also exports to PowerPoint, PDF and QuickTime and has an open, XML-based file format.
Resources:
- PDF to Keynote - splits PDFs into sequences of single images in Keynote format.
- Keynote XML Development
- The Keynote Page
- Keynote HQ
Similar:
- KeyJnote, a Python-based OpenGL tool that displays animated slideshows from PDF files, and which I invoke thusly:
$ cat ~/.bash_aliases | grep present alias present='~/Scripts/keyjnote.py -T 200 -t Crossfade'
