Getting Help from the PowerPoint Community
With an estimated 600 million folks just like you using PowerPoint to pound out everything from business presentations to school reports, sermons, prosecuting arguments, and who-knows-what-else, odds are good that whatever problem you've run into is one that someone else (or a whole lot of someone else's) has already run into and solved.
Useful PowerPoint resources abound on the Web; here are a handful of the best:
The PowerPoint FAQ (www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq): Created and maintained by PPTools (a company that also develops PowerPoint add-in programs), this site is so rich with practical advice, tips, and tricks that Microsoft's own PowerPoint site links to it.
MasterView International (www.masterviews.com/index.htm): This site's articles, forums, links to blogs, and free online newsletter all focus on designing and managing effective PowerPoint presentations for international audiences.
Michael Hyatt's Working Smart (www.michaelhyatt.com/workingsmart/microsoft_powerpoint) is an intelligent, well-written blog that address not just the technical aspects of PowerPoint, but the meatier issues of designing and delivering effective presentations.
