Presentations: Not as effective as you might think

Powerpoint has made a big impact on meetings, conferences and even on lectures. Everyday more people use it to communicate their ideas. Even worse, people get better at using it, and make more powerful presentations. But there is a big problem: It is boring to watch a "feature rich" presentation. The diagrams and bullets usually don't make sense for the audience. They look smart but the communication is not as powerful as simple old plain talks...

Kathy Sierra has good advices on this issue: http://headrush.typepad.com/creating_passionate_users/2005/06/kill_your_prese.html Check it out. It is useful.

Have nice "talk rich" presentations...
