A lot of what I do revolves around presentations. As an engineer and as a student. Both as presenter and as audience. At conferences, in the office, at school, practically everywhere. Even church. (I was the guest lecturer pulpit guest on Labor Day Sunday, which was basically a presentation without PowerPoint^TM.)

Powerpoint^TM. Anyone that has seen more that two PowerPoint^TM presentations has seen a bad one.

Even Edward Tufte, the legend of presenting data, has a booklet on PowerPoint^TM presentations.

But as my public service for today, in order to make (my) world a better place, I give you Death by Powerpoint^TM, an excelent tutorial on presentations. Review it while preparing your next presentation, it will make it better.

Next time you look over and your kid is licking thier cotton-candy covered fingers after the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, think about this.
