A proper PowerPoint presentation

October 10th, 2005 * Comments(0)

I admit it’s not terribly extensive but the piece by Kevin Kelly does raise some good points –  Beyond Bullet Points (pun intended)

The medium of PowerPoint is one of visual storytelling.
These are not bullet points that the audience
are meant to read.
It might sound counterintuitive, but when you put less information on a slide, you increase the audience’s attention because the audience is then dependent on the speaker for explanation, and the speaker is dependent on the audience for feedback.

Let us hope we do not have to listen to yet another boring presentation with hundreds of lines of text, boring paragraphs and reading right off the slide instead of speaking.*

SNOOOOOOOZE

*y’know damn well who’s to blame

 

Svetloba potuje hitreje od hitrosti svetlobe

Hja oèitno vse tiste teorije o hitrosti svetlobe in kako niè ne gre hitreje od tega ne držijo povsem. Kmalu se bo lahko še èlovek prav udobno sprehajal s hitrostjo tistega slavnega c

 Oèitno obstaja naèin s katerim lahko svetlobo (skoraj) poljubno pohitrimo ali upoèasnimo celo na podzvoèno hitrost 245 m/s!

Hitrost svetlobe se sicer spreminja (upoèasnjuje) v odvisnosti od snovi v kateri se nahaja ampak kakšnih neverjetnih deviacij od 299.792.458 metrov na sekundo (v vakumu) zaenkrat ni bilo doseženih.

Kaj to pomeni za vsa mogoèa podroèja znanosti raje ne bi ugibal. Vsekakor se odpira cel kup novih možnosti.

 

ahh snow…missing it already

I need snow and I need it fast! It’s nothing but pure white powder addiction baby!

There’s already a touch of snow up there in the hills but nothing to write home about. With the irony of the universe in full swing I’m betting the incredibly wet and cold summer and fall will be replaced by an equaly incredible dry and warm winter. We’ll be diving in 15°C water and nothin’ but sunshine in the middle of winter, mark my words! Murphy ‘n all that…
