Keynote is a presentation software application developed as a part of the iWork productivity suite by Apple Inc. Keynote 5.1.1 was announced on December 1, 2011 and is the most recent version for the Macintosh. It adds new themes, transitions and animations, and the ability to control the slideshow with an iPhone or iPod touch through the Keynote Remote application.[1] On January 27, 2010, Apple announced a new version of Keynote for iPad with an all new touch interface.[2]

History [edit]
Keynote began as a computer program for Apple CEO Steve Jobs to use in creating the presentations for Macworld Conference and Expo and other Apple keynote events.[3] Prior to using Keynote, Jobs had used Concurrence, from Lighthouse Design, a similar product which ran on the NeXTSTEP and OpenStep platforms. The program was first sold publicly as Keynote 1.0 in 2003, competing against existing presentation software, most notably Microsoft PowerPoint.
In 2005 Apple began selling Keynote 2.0 in conjunction with Pages, a new word processing and page layout application, in a software package called iWork. At the Macworld Conference & Expo 2006, Apple released iWork '06 with updated versions of Keynote 3.0 and Pages 2.0. In addition to official HD compatibility, Keynote 3 added new features, including group scaling, 3D charts, multi-column text boxes, auto bullets in any text field, image adjustments, and free form masking tools. In addition, Keynote features three-dimensional transitions, such as a rotating cube or a simple flip of the slide.
In the fall of 2007, Apple released Keynote 4.0 in iWork '08, along with Pages 3.0 and the new Numbers spreadsheet application.
Features [edit]
- Themes that allow the user to keep consistency in colors and fonts throughout the presentation, including charts, graphs and tables.
- OpenGL-powered 3D slide transitions and builds that resemble rolling cubes or flipping pages, or dissolving transitions that fade one slide into the next.
- Dual monitor support: the presenter can show the presentation on a screen and still see the desktop or notes from his or her laptop or presenter screen.
- Exports to PDF, QuickTime, JPEG, TIFF, PNG, HTML (with JPEG images) and PowerPoint. Keynote also uses .key (presentation files) and .kth (theme files) bundles based on XML.[4]
- Supports all QuickTime video formats (including MPEG-2 and DV) in slideshows.
- Version 3 brings export to iDVD with clickability.
- Compatibility with Apple Remote and the Keynote remote application for iPhone and iPod touch.[1]
Keynote Remote [edit]
Keynote Remote is an iOS application that can control Keynote presentations from an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad over a Wi-Fi network or Bluetooth connection, and was released through the App Store with a price of $0.99
