I have been playing with the prezi.com demo since last August, and now it is finally open for all to try out.

I like that it allows more of a freestyle presentation than you can get using PowerPoint slides. Plus, it gives a great alternative to death by bullet points.

Try it out for yourself and let me know what you think of it.

Some of these ways will pull the best methods from diverse fields, such as:
  • presentation skills
  • information graphics
  • comics/graphic novels
  • visual language/visual thinking
  • mind maps/concept maps
  • graphic design
  • information design/information architecture
  • idea generation/brainstorming
  • sketches/prototypes/storyboards
  • communication theory and practices
  • group collaboration
  • metaphors/similes/storytelling
  • and others
I hope you enjoy the upcoming posts!
