Minimalism has become the new hot trend in business presentation.
As was foretold in Presentation Zen, concept presentation (e.g. The Brand Gap), and even technical ones (e.g. OpenID) can be delivered in simple, one-sentence a slide presentations.
The format makes the reader focus on one single idea at a time, which makes it perfect for storytelling structure. And when you get down to it, everything is strorytelling…
To demonstrate this, I’ve created a short presentation that explains the main concepts of descriptive programming. Some think it’s much friendlier than the knowladge-base article, and some think that it’s useless.
If you’ll think it’s a valuable addition (or even a substitute) to the full article, I’ll make sure the next coceptual topics will be backed with the same kind of presentation.
Please let me know, since I already have to write every post and article twice (Hebrew and English), and I would rather not spend my time writing presentations that don’t hit the mark.

This slides presentation is really good, and appriciate the idea. And the way you explained the things is really good, which is “point to point” rather giving lengthy/unnecessary background of particular topic.

I have no idea what could be wrong. It works fine on my end in FireFox, IE6, IE7 and Safari.
Have your tried the direct link:

Its a brilliant way of presentation…..never saw anything of such sort before.Good work & all the best .
July 10th, 2008 at 7:52 am
Good way of explaining things.I think same approach can be followed for all other articles
July 12th, 2008 at 11:33 am
Nice presentation. Too bad you use an IF-THEN-ELSE inside the loop in slide 55. Instead make use of DP and add the desired description property to oDesc:
oDesc(”ToolTipText”).Value = “This is the one!”
Now the collection oChildren ONLY contains the objects you’re looking for. The loop would be:
For i = 0 To oChildren.Count - 1
oChildren(i).Set “ON”
Next

Well, I’m sold on using Descriptive Programmin’. I’ve had nothing but frustrations with the object repository. I would rather do it from the hip as shown here.

Wonderful
