"A picture says more than a 1,000 words" comes to mind.</p><p>I think a PowerPoint has got the purpose to VISUALIZE what the speaker is talking about. It can be extremely useful when used well.</p><p>For me that means that there should be as few words on a PowerPoint as possible. Use graphs, tables, pictures, etc to get the point across. Speak the words yourself.</p>jenslapinskiFri, 04 Apr 2008 08:12:39 -0000
