News Channel Launch (Sort Of)

From London, another new entrant into the crowded and possibly of dwindling financial attraction, world of rolling broadcast news. Trying to tackle the divisive giant of the market - the tax funded BBC - is indeed laudable. In this case, the latest challenger is a radio station morphing into a

Spring Statement Speech Sorter

Perhaps the most underused function in slideware is the ability to see all your slides at once in thumbnail.

3 Public Speaking Cures From A Mind Coach

note the difference lighting can give you on your video call; (L) as presented, (R) brightened post-broadcast with filter (& feel the perils of a high-back ‘exec’ chair…) You do worry when someone describes themselves as a mind coach, don’t you. Don MacPherson was talking
