the text!
Your slide If your slide looks like this, I don’t want to be your friend
anymore. If you make slides like this, you are likely to be
compelled to read each and every word, exactly how it is
written on the screen. It isn’t that you are a bad person, it is
that you don’t care enough about other people to try to:
• Present your information so it will stick with them and keep
them awake while you are speaking.
• Keep from boring them to death. I tend to start doodling or
write short stories about audience members throwing things
at speakers.
• The least you could do is find a funny cat picture and stick it
in the middle somewhere. That would at least wake us up for
a few seconds. Who doesn’t like cat pictures?
