You could always send the presentation by email, but what happens if it’s too large to send as an attachment, or what if the recipient does not have PowerPoint installed on his computer? There are several places on the internet that allow you to upload your presentation and then share it with others.

If your presentation is complete and you know you don’t need to do any further tweaking, upload it to Slideshare.net.  After it has been uploaded, you can edit the privacy settings and share it with specific people or make it public. You can even copy the embed code and make it viewable within your own web page or blog. You can also give others the option to download the presentation as a PowerPoint file to their own computer.

Here is a presentation within SlideShare on creating effective presentations:

If you want to continue working on your presentation, or if several people are collaborating on the same presentation, consider uploading it to Google Docs. Set your sharing preferences as desired. You may even want to start from scratch on Google Docs and bypass PowerPoint altogether. There are a few built-in themes, or you can upload your own background.
