Not really! Though I wouldn't be surprised if most people use prezi more for
the animations/transitions/uniqueness than really using the non-linearity.
Does that make sense? As in, I know you can go to "slide 1" (or zoom in on
some area as your "slide 1"), move on to some other things and then quickly
whip back to slide 1 as you say, "Now, remember this information I spoke of
earlier? Let's look at how that's affected by what I just referred to" or
something like that.

I guess I'm taking "non-linear" to mean how you navigate through the
information, not solely the fact that prezi is on a huge canvas and thus not
a sequence (linear) of slides.

If you just mean the ability to revisit things... I think there should
definitely be a way to put your presentation together in advance so you
revisit various things and make the appearance of non-linearity. But it will
still be fullscreen slides showing one after another, not twirling and
whirling around a canvas.
