It is difficult to visualize how meetings got conducted before the age of PowerPoint. Whether we love it or hate it, we can?t seem to do without it.

Here are a couple of resources from people who can help you maximise the potential of the medium and could almost make you enjoy it, if not love it.

Cliff Atkinson writes an extremely readable blog, Beyond Bullets and you definitely come away with ideas that you can try out at your next presentation. It is on hiatus till November but certainly worth catching up on the archives in the meantime.

Geetesh Bajaj, another PowerPoint proponent has a blog and a number of resources and tips on the effective use of PowerPoint.

Happy experimenting!
