This is similar to the functionality that the latter allows you to do on your desktop. Even if SlideShare is not directly related to LinkedIn, it was created to have a social networking theme and so many of the features that it offers are like those of the latter, i.e., allowing groups and tagging, voting and uploading of your pictures or videos, as well as the ability to upload and share files between devices. Though this app isn't associated with LinkedIn, Microsoft's new name for its own social networking tool has made it similar.
According to its parent company i.e., SlideShare, it offers free unlimited access to more than 15 millions slideshows worldwide and has about 70 million registered users. SlideShare is a unique social networking site that allows you to upload and share pictures and videos on the web.
