It may be the end of PPT’s market dominance but, as this article shows, a rash of imitations rather than authentic presentations, is likely to be the upshot. Was that a groan we heard from PPT-hater Trevor Cook?

I think ppt is fine if its used well. A few key words and mainly images but what I truly hate is people writing speeches on slides and putting them up on a screen and then talking as if the text is not actually on the screen and no-one can read it

My colleague Russell Wardrop of UK presentation skills consultancy – Kissing With Confidence – says that 6 slides should be plenty for a 20-minute presentation. http://www.kissingwithconfidence.com
