<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am trying to find a software solution which will fit the following description:<br />
<br />
We are looking to have a 'noticeboard' display in one of our staff areas which will essentially run a presentation on a loop with useful information for our staff.<br />
<br />
We could just run powerpoint on a PC and have the operator who will update the presentation to VNC onto the machine, close the presentation, make the changes that they want, open it again and run the slideshow but this is not an ideal solution.<br />
<br />
I am really trying to find something that will run in full screen mode on either a windows or linux based PC or thin client with the content shown on teh screen being able to be updated either via a windows application or via a web-browser.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions for either commercial software or something free would be most appreciated.

Public Display/Noticeboard System

A presentation program is a software package used to display information in the form of a slide show. It has three major functions: an editor that allows text to be inserted and formatted, a method for inserting and manipulating graphic images, and a slide-show system to display the content. Presentation program is supposed to help both the speaker with an easier access to his ideas and the participants with visual information which complements the talk.

Presentation Software

PowerPoint is a slide show presentation program currently developed by Microsoft. PowerPoint presentations consist of a number of individual pages or "slides" that may contain text, graphics, sound, movies, and other objects, which may be arranged freely. The presentation can be printed, displayed live on a computer, or navigated through at the command of the presenter. Slides can also form the basis of webcasts.

Microsoft PowerPoint

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.
