Posting a PPT to your blog

The way I did this, is by doing the following:
  1. Use OpenOffice to export the PPT as a MacroMedia Flash (.swf) file
  2. Upload the swf file to Google Pages. Any place accessible is just as good.
  3. Use the URL to the *.swf file in the snippet below. Note the URL is used in two places.
  4. Paste this snippet into the HTML where you want your PPT to show
<object width="425" height="350">
<param name="movie" value="http://balpeck.googlepages.com/ColinPowellonleadership.swf"/>
<embed src="http://balpeck.googlepages.com/ColinPowellonleadership.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350">
</embed>
</object>
