Do's and Dont's of Making Awesome Diagrams for Slides Yeah. I do loads of slide decks each year for several companies and there are two types of decks I do a lot. One is the presentation. One is the infodeck, which is really intended more as a document for distribution than as a presentation. The trouble is when I run into people who I can't convince there should be a difference. And those people are usually managers commissioning the deck and not the presenters that will be using them. A coworker refers to them as textbombs, or in particularly egregious cases, text WMDs. Anybody help me? They are loose terms, so I'm sure they're called other things as well. An infodeck is a slide deck that is not meant to be presented to an audience.
New Rules For Power Point Presentations (Revised) Use Google Maps Navigation For Android In Unsupported Countries The official Android client of Google’s official navigation app is quite a remarkable app that can help you reach your destinations with ease, without having to rely on paper maps, or needing to ask others routes to your required places. The pity, however, is that the Google Maps Navigation service is currently not accessible in every part of the world. The first time Google Maps for Android was hacked to allow the use of Navigation in unsupported countries, Google released an update for the app that mended the exploited loophole. But that didn’t stop XDA-Developers member Brut.all from continuing to release Navigation unlock mods for the app. Currently, a group of Chinese hackers/power users are releasing Brut.all’s mod for every Google Maps update that comes along. You now have Google Maps with Navigation. Head on over to the mod’s XDA-Developers forum thread to download its latest version. Download Google Maps For Android Advertisement
Swiss Group Wants to Banish PowerPoint While most people might not love using Microsoft's PowerPoint to create presentations, at least one person is taking his distaste for the software to a global level. Matthias Poehm, a former software engineer-turned-public speaking trainer has started -- yes -- the Anti-PowerPoint Party (APPP) earlier this month. Headquartered in Bonstetten, Switzerland, the APPP calls itself an "international movement" that intends to "decrease the number of boring presentations worldwide." Right. While an APPP representative didn't immediately return an email seeking comment, the statistics above seem to originate from Poehm's book, "The PowerPoint Fallacy." If this doesn't seem wacky enough, the group says it also wants to participate in the Swiss national elections in October and become the country's fourth-largest political party. Keep it short. Don't be long-winded. Make it readable. How have you spiced up your presentations? Jason Fell is the managing editor of Entrepreneur.com.

Data Presentation - 5 PowerPoint Tips Home > Presenting Data Main > 5 Data Presentation Tips Most data presentations are confusing and boring. Learn the 5 tips to make your presentation clearer and more memorable. Tip 1: Put your conclusion on the title Most presenters use vague slide titles like Our Sales Performance. This doesn’t give the audience any clue about what to look for in the sea of numbers presented on the slide. Always put the conclusion from your slide on the slide title. See this table of data on a slide: Since the conclusion is clearly mentioned on the title, audience’s eyes are naturally led to the relevant numbers on the table. Tip 2: Highlight your inference A lot of presenters lose their audience because they make them think. Realize that not everyone in your audience likes to crunch numbers. See the PowerPoint slide with clear graph below: The areas that depict losses and profits are highlighted clearly in different colors. Tip 3: Use images to make your message more memorable First the axes are explained.
