Death and Revival? |
|
|
So, you've used PowePoint for a quarter of a century, and have heard soothsayers predicting both death by PowerPoint, and the death of PowerPoint every single year. However, PowerPoint is still alive and kicking. It may not be the best
thing since sliced bread, but it works predictably most of the time and is continuously updated.
Not to rub salt over some wounds, but many PowerPoint killer programs have spawned over the years. Many of them no longer exist. Some that do exist have made peace with the PowerPoint-led ecosystem, and have built bridges that let you import and export PowerPoint files. And that is Microsoft's secret potion that keeps PowerPoint so omnipresent - 'the PowerPoint file format.' That's food
for thought and we will take this discussion further in the next issue of this newsletter.
Enjoy reading the content this time, and see you soon. |

|
 |
|
PowerPoint 365 for Mac gives you several different “views” to work with—think of them like camera angles in a movie. Some are your all-time favorites, and then there are the unsung heroes—views that hang out quietly in the background, waiting for their big break. One of those under-the-radar features is Reading view. It’s like the understudy who
knows the whole script but rarely gets called on stage. Give it a chance—it might surprise you with how smooth and useful it really is! |

When I Started Storytelling: by Margot Leitman
"I can honestly say that when I started storytelling—speaking openly about my experiences—my life changed for the better. I started having sincere relationships with people right away, instead of hiding behind bravado or small talk."

David Letterman’s Top Ten |
|
 |
|
In his nearly two decades as the host of the CBS Late Night show, Mr. Letterman has made his nightly reading of his Top Ten list a social ritual of American culture. While he uses his list for comic effect, you can use the same approach to create a structure for your presentations. In the fast and furious business world where presentations are often
hastily cobbled together with a disparate collection of begged, borrowed, or stolen slides and delivered by a presenter who is the only one in the room who can understand what on Earth one slide has to do with another, the numbering technique can be emergency CPR. |
