In the correct hands PowerPoint can do wonders and amplify one's experience. Others it can bog down and severely hinder the immersion. Tufte and Byrne both make exceedingly valid points, but it is the person who can truly make or break the use of Power Point.
- http://www.ted.com/ is one of the greatest examples of a website full of fantastic speakers that are able to incorporate and use powerpoint, all while being captive speakers. If anyone ever needs great examples of phenomenal public speaking this is the best source I could provide for you.

This video in particular inspired me a few years ago to really strive to be a teacher, at the time it was powerful, but later I found what I truly wanted from it. That goal was to be an inspiring public speaker. To give people a new lot or ideal in life is worth while. Giving hope and ideology is real power in a world full of so many fishbowls all trying to sit on the top shelf.
Powerpoint can help or hinder, as I said before, but it is truly up to us to use our resources in such a way that most definitely helps.

In my opinion, judging PowerPoint is almost like judging a pencil. It can create wonderful works of art, or simply deface the environment around us.
