Death By PowerPoint


Via Piaras. If I had a shiny Euro for every presentation like this that I’ve had to sit through …

McMillan forgot one rule - Comic Sans is illegal.

It’s a shame this problem seems to be becoming more widespread. I wrote a piece on how PowerPoint is now spilling over into Word territory, and why this is a bad thing.

Here’s a video clip of a quality presentation which uses PowerPoint (very) sparingly, and, even better, is all about how to give good presentations.


Tip: If you really want an audience to pay attention to a presentation you’re giving, don’t use PowerPoint at all. You will stand out.
