Microsoft Should Donate PowerPoint to the Taliban

Microsoft Should Donate PowerPoint to the Taliban

By Zoli Erdos on April 28, 2010

I don’t pretend to be a military strategist, but I’ve figured out how to win the war in Afghanistan.  OK, not on my own – The New York Times helped, with an article titled: We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint: Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the leader of American and NATO forces in […]

Conversations: SAP Influencer Summit vs. Le Web

Conversations: SAP Influencer Summit vs. Le Web

By Guest Authors on December 14, 2009

I’ve spent the last few days attending – virtually – the SAP Influencer Summit and the Le Web conference in Paris. The two events were very different, but I think there’s some interesting comparisons that can be drawn that point to the future direction of conferences. SAP Influencer Summit Let’s start with the SAP Influencer […]

Prezi Dazzles: Live Recording of a Social Media Class

Prezi Dazzles: Live Recording of a Social Media Class

By Zoli Erdos on November 9, 2009

I’ve said before: if you wanto to dazzle with your presentation, use Prezi.  The Prezi team did to presentations what Google did to email: throw away all pre-existing notions, re-think why and how we use email (presentations) and build something from scratch.  That’s how you get results that truly dazzle.  Of course that brings up […]

Web 2.0 Presentation Tools from SAP – Integrate Twitter into PowerPoint!

Web 2.0 Presentation Tools from SAP – Integrate Twitter into PowerPoint!

By Guest Authors on October 6, 2009

In today’s web 2.0 world, sometimes the presenter on stage is the only one who doesn’t know what the audience is thinking – because everybody else is viewing the Twitter stream. These new prototypes fix that problem, allowing you to give presentations in web 2.0 style, with the comments from your audience appearing directly on […]

Presentations: a Counterpoint. Think Creation, Not Just Delivery

Presentations: a Counterpoint. Think Creation, Not Just Delivery

By Zoli Erdos on September 21, 2009

We’ve often stated there is no such thing as the “CloudAve View”, only the views of individual authors, and we encourage debate even within our own team.  The one thing we all agree in is that debate is good.  In that spirit I offer some counterpoints to Ben’s post: Presentations… And Re-Inventing the Wheel Please […]

Hate PowerPoint Because You Love Your Audience

Hate PowerPoint Because You Love Your Audience

By Zoli Erdos on December 29, 2008

2008 REDUX Another piece in the 2008 Redux series – unfortunately just as relevant as it was almost a year ago: Ok, I admit: it’s a bombastic title. Even worse, it’s stolen. I stole it from Entrepreneur – Startup CEO – Investor – Blogger Dharmesh Shah, who just explained why he hates Powerpoint, and we […]

Oh, That Bloated Presentation - The Web is Greener

Oh, That Bloated Presentation – The Web is Greener

By Zoli Erdos on September 16, 2008

We can argue all we want about  the benefits of SaaS, discuss hypothetical use cases at length, but the best showcases are served up by real life, often unexpectedly. A startup CEO friend asked me to take a look at his Powerpoint deck before he would send it to a VC.  (Incidentally, I don’t believe […]
