SlideShare thrives with a 3 million funding round

In terms of documents recreation, the most saturated market in web 2.0 is without a doubt “powerpoint like” solutions for Slideshows and such.
there was such a explosion of them, we have only covered the main ones and left the rest untouched unless they were truly worthy. so i guess that can be one of the blogosphere faults in the recent powerpoint inclined web 2.0 solution where almost 10 of them have dried up and dies in the past months.
That will not be the case of SlideShare now it has got funding for 3 million dollars to survive the storm and there will be a storm because of:
- 1.-Google Docs progression (mostly Ajax based)
- 2.-Adobe Share progression (Flash/Flex)
- 3.-Office Live progression (Silverlight)
i mean, while i celebrate SlideShare funding, i am also looking into a future where the Web Office Solutions take the center stand as will also do the Digital Document startups like Scribd and DocStoc in all this kind of Widget Solutions.
