Saw many of the no-no's highlighted in Dermot's excellent "how not to" link in my corporate days. Only ever gave one professional Powerpoint presentation: my project handover / product development vision as my Cellnet swansong. Resulted in lots of handshaking and backslapping from the audience. Dead chuffed. Especially as the central "road warrior" character around which the presentation was themed had been modelled on a Morph-style "Pink Bendy Man" that I got as a gizzit in the previous month's Christmas Stocking for a larf!

Hell, someone had already done "Blue Man Group"....

That's a classic! Very funny!

I use PowerPoint quite a bit for my own classes, and thankfully - I'm not guilty of any of those bad mistakes (... well not in recent years anyways... )

.... having sat through many painful PowerPoint presentations myself over the years, (and some I regretably paid too much money for!) .... I am familiar with the cliched mistakes, and try to avoid them where possible....

FYI, if anyone is interested, you can always get some great PowerPoint ideas from this website - http://www.slideshare.net/featured
