Personally, I think Bunkr is bunk. Yeah, let's take Powerpoint/Google Slides and slap web embeds on it. Even the article states: If you need to create 10 slides with bullet points and tables, PowerPoint is still the right tool. But if you want to make a modern presentation with videos, articles from the web and tweet embeds, Bunkr is the way to go. I read that as "If you're not making a presentation for Ignite, you're not going to be using this tool." I hate to be so negative, but the tone of the article is aggravating. Let's thank TechCrunch for giving HN some quality entertainment.

>>> articles from the web and tweet embeds. I've been around the startup scene in my city for a while and have yet to come across a presentation where someone embedded tweets into their presentation.

Personally I don't care if the product is web embeds or some other kind of tech. It seems to be good to make good-looking presentations and bad at making bullet-points and tables I've been sharing Seth's Godin "Really Bad Powerpoint" http://www.sethgodin.com/freeprize/reallybad-1.pdf http://www.sethgodin.com/freeprize/reallybad-1.pdf for nearly a decade now (it's been around since 2001, but I was a consultant back then. Tables and bullet points put food on my table) and I'm still hoping someone will help the rest of the world understand. Google Slides didn't achieve that (quite the opposite actually if you've ever seen some Slides presentations) Prezi is definitely progress, but most people just import powerpoint presentations so it doesn't really work. Conclusion: I won't judge Bunkr on features or tech, but on what presentations it actually yields. (full disclosure: I don't know anyone in the Bunkr team personally, but I'm part of the same accelerator as them)
