There was a recent how-to on wired about Al Gore’s presentation style. It outlines how presentations shouldn’t be read, slides are a tool. Your content and major themes should be spoken so they listen to you. Memorize material, large fonts, big images, phrases not paragraphs/sentences,. Blah blah, I’ve heard it before. That is basic but still necessary and often can prevent the vast majority of crappy presentations. But still, what makes a really great presentation? Or how do you express a new idea or information?

Then I saw this commoncraft page and they have wow! that is a really clever and informative way to explain complicated topics. If you tried to make it about a common theme or a speaker, it wouldn’t really be as useful or informative. Sure RSS is great, but this shows you why its great, and how to use it.

And twitter! Something you might not see the point of, but this could give you a positive perspective.
