Thanks for the jump-over tip - that's the slickness right there.

I can't remember where I read it (or if someone said it to me), but one of my favourite bits of advice about presentations is to think about your slides as being like another performer. So it's a double act. You and the slides.

Once you start thinking about great partnerships, whether it's funny people or news anchors or whatever, you realise that there's actually the potential to do really interesting things in terms of energy and flow by thinking in this way.

I found it useful anyway :-)
