In some countries students and pupils are punished with a lower mark, if they give a presentation without PowerPoint*.
Superiors are obliging their co-workers to use PowerPoint*.
The fact is that the average PowerPoint* presentation creates boredom.
The world is using PowerPoint* without knowing that the alternative
flip-chart has a triple effect in 95% of the cases.


... thinking nobody is interested to have an anti-autohotkey ... 8)

I read this today on slashdot. Powerpoints aren't that bad if someone is considerate to add do something besides a wall of text. I am forced to make powerpoints at work and I just throw in a million pictures and video's. A slide with a 3 minute video is much more involving that 9 pages of text explaining the same thing.

Cool anti-PP site, I think the man has some points. However, I too think that PP can be used well. Just follow this rule: Don't use the powerpoint to say anything you could instead say yourself - use it to reiterate and explain with images.
