If you missed my introductory web seminar last year titled "Transform your PowerPoint Beyond Bullet Points," I'll be presenting the session again at 9am PT on May 10 in association with Microsoft Office Work Essentials and the International Association of Administrative Professionals. The seminar covers the basics of the BBP approach and there's no cost to attend, but you have to register first by clicking on the Register link in the left-hand column of this page >
Hi Cliff,
I attended the Microsoft Webcast event and was thoroughly impressed. This is the second time that I have seen an engaging, interesting presentation served with the help of powerpoint. The focus is absolutely on the speaker now and no longer on the list of bullets displayed on the screen. As an ocassional creator-n-presenter, the paradigm shift appears daunting.
However, I look forward to practicing the process that you proposed and demonstrated magnificently yesterday. Guy Kawasaki successfully presents this way, and I'm sure there are others. It would be ideal if you could recommend other presenters & presentations to view that could further reinforce this way of *high voltage* communication.
Thank you,
peter

Thanks Peter! I'm glad you enjoyed it. For other resources, I can recommend www.presentationzen.com, which is doing a great job of collecting presentation-related resources.

Thank you, Cliff, for the reference to www.presentationzen.com. I also find your discussion board - http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/mb/sociablemedia - to be a valuable resource. I see my question has been asked before with responses and that there are BPP examples available by your readers in other threads.
All the best! peter

Hi Cliff,
I have downloaded the .wmv file but alas I cannot find a codec for the Mac that can play this file.
Please can you make it available for download using a codec that Mac users can view?
Thanks
John
