Office 2007 Ultimate Key September is Alive with P

Some quick notes about three special events of interest to PowerPoint users. Slideshare's 2nd Annual Best Presentation Contest Winner
The results of Slideshare's 2nd annual presentation contest are in,Office 2007 Ultimate Key, and the winner is Jeff Brenman's Thirst, a compelling and very visual story about water.  The contest was judged by Guy Kawasaki, Bert Decker, Garr Reynolds and Nancy Duarte.  Read all about it and review the winners and other contest entries at   You Can Still Get Into PowerPoint Heaven We may be biased, but we think that PowerPoint has the best MVPs around.  PowerPoint user comments tend to re-enforce that opinion; the PowerPoint MVPs go above and beyond the call of duty. An example of this is MVP Shawn Toh's web site PowerPoint Heaven.  Normally the site is chock full of presentation ##################, tutorials, and other examples of cool and useful things you can do with PowerPoint. This month the site taking things up a notch, and is hosting an online e-Con. Things got started on September 1st, and continue participation through 26th, culminating with an online convention capping the event on the 27th.  We'll be watching things develop here,Microsoft Office Pro Plus, and suggest you may want to too. For more details check out   The PowerPoint Live User Conference 2008 


Rounding out September and in it's sixth successful year, Rick Altman's PowerPoint Live User Conference continues to draw an impressive array of presenters and attendees.  This year's conference in San Diego, is no exception.  Held September 21st through 24th,Office 2010 Sale, this year's keynote speakers include Jim Endicott, Nancy Duarte and Garr Reynolds.  Garr will present to the San Diego audience live from Osaka Japan. 

Quite a lineup. But the meat of the convention is found in the three tracks of daily sessions focusing on skill building both in presentation construction and delivery.

Following the theme of arming attendees with new presentation skills,Office 2010 Activation Key, the convention builds and staffs a help center. Here a crew that includes many PowerPoint MVPs provides one to one assistance for convention attendees with solutions and advice on specific questions.  A few members of Microsoft's PowerPoint and Office Art teams usually attend the convention.  We're interested in the sessions of course, and occasionally speak or aid presenters. But we're also there to listen to customers, to learn how people use PowerPoint, and gather feedback that will help us create better products.

Check out podcast recordings from last year's conference, where PowerPoint MVPs, conference keynote speakers and conference organizers sat down to discuss the unique nature of the community this conference creates every year.

The conference is still open for registrations,Office 2007 Key, but you'll want to hurry! Ric Bretschneider <div
