    1) They host slide decks from presentations. I seem them being used by a wide variety of people, including lots of tech presentations.
    2) Do you care about presentations, or HTML 5? If not, you wouldn't.
    3) Because lots of us nerds care about HTML 5 and technical presentations.

    And we hate flash and it's good to see these moves away from proprietary tech to open standards. The web is back.
