2012 and We're STILL Using PowerPoint Wrong
The document criticizes the overuse and misuse of PowerPoint presentations. It notes that PowerPoint was created in 1990 but presenters are still improperly using it 22 years later by overstuffing slides with too much text and information instead of using it to tell stories. The document recommends using images, telling interesting stories, preparing early, getting better training, and stopping the practice of overstuffing slides to create more effective presentations.
