Otherwise, it's just flashing on a screen what the speaker is already saying.

Thank you!!! If I want to READ about the topic, I'll buy the book. If I want to be read to, I'll go to story hour at the library.

Yes, thank you. People think PowerPoint is some catch-all that will save a presentation, and it's not. There are a lot of situations where PowerPoint just doesn't work well.

Agree totally with all the PowerPoint hate. I think if my boss could have sex with PowerPoint, she would.
