I used Google Slides in place of PowerPoint, and it worked pretty well.

But I think Robert's interested more in a means to store his presentations
in some meaningful way. On a Mac you could use something like DevonThink as
an automated database with tagging capabilities. This would work for all
document types, not just presentations. I'm not sure what works on the
Windows platform.

Robert, could you jerryrig some kind of system in your wiki?
