Online Quiz creation - Quia

I used Quia for the first time www.quia.com and really liked it.  Very easy to use and very easy to share the location of the quiz.  The reports showing results of quizzes taken by students is also very easy to navigate.
The quiz I made:  accounting quiz

Prezi

I used Prezi for the first time - I'm not sure how much I like yet, or if I like it at all.  It might just be that it doesn't work well for something as linear and orderly as Accounting.
