Say more in your blog with embedded PowerPoint and Excel files

Ever spoken at a conference, and wanted to share your presentation with a wider audience? Need an easier way to distribute and update a team schedule? Or, just want a better way to illustrate a point in your blog?

Now you can make your ideas speak even louder by using Office Web Apps to embed PowerPoint presentations or Excel spreadsheets right into your blog posts. I could tell you how easy it is, but why not see it in action? Just click on the viewer below to learn how to embed a PowerPoint - with an embedded PowerPoint:

Your readers can page through the slides within your blog, or click to view all the transitions and animations in a separate window.

You can embed Excel spreadsheets in the same way you do for PowerPoint presentations. For detailed instructions, visit http://office.com/embedexcel.
