Why does no one use google docs for presentations?
ordinaryman: Even Google does not seem to use/promote it extensively. Refer to a recent blog post in GAE, except for the one session, all others have their slides as PDF (no embedded or "View as slideshow" option) !!

They do have it available in Gmail, though.Not sure whether Google uses it inside for its own meetings or in its developer conferences. HN users who have attended such conferences may add details.When normal users are trained to use such online services, it will be adopted in a better way. That will probably happen when a player like Google removes its "View as HTML" from its services (or hides it below) and promotes "View as Slideshow" alone.
