Try VideoPut. Is a tool for uploading videos to the internet.
Currently, you can upload videos to YouTube. With VideoPut you can upload videos in more comfortable way instead of uploading via your web browser. Usually even much more faster. If you have a lot of videos which you want to post to YouTube or other video website but don't want to spend so much time uploading them in this case VideoPut is just for you. If you have bad internet connection and want to upload big files it would be a real pain to do that via web broswer, with VideoPut it will be much more easily and more faster.

No you can't because powerpoint uses a file format called .pps and that is not a video format file. You can probally take what is called a "screen-capture/video" of the powerpoint presentation running and upload that though. good luck.

I'm assuming you're using Windows.

Actually, you CAN make a video of a powerpoint. This is my method:

Use a video capture program (If you don't want to spend money, try CamStudio) to capture a video of your full screen, while you operate the presentation. In your capture program, make sure your mouse isn't visible when recording.

Save the file as an .avi, and use Windows Movie Maker to shrink the video so it can upload into Youtube with minimal quality loss.

Use Windows Movie Maker to cut off the parts where you start and end the presentation, and use it to add sound if necessary.

Remember, you can use other video programs if you want. My example is for Windows only, Mac users will have to find a video screen capture program for Mac, and instead of Windows Movie Maker use iMovie.

After you've edited your movie, save it as a movie file (WMV) and upload it to Youtube.

Hi,

In PowerPoint 2008 use File > Make Movie. Then upload the movie file into YouTube.

This is a new feature of PowerPoint 2008. Older versions do not have this.
