Sync your HTML slides in real-time with your audience using Firebase (cowbell-labs.com)

Neat. I built something similar into RevealJS last year and have been using it since.

The thing that really excites me about allowing your audience to view the slides on their own devices is vision impaired people being able to use their assistive technologies (screen readers etc) to view the slides.

Check out the multiplex plugin of reveal. I host a publicly available server courtesy of Nodejitsu and there's no connection limit.

Thanks for the tip. Really cool idea with the publicly available server - I assumed that some HTML slide frameworks might have e.g. SocketIO plugins, but didn't expect them to have an official server as well.
