Hi, my name is Jimmy. I'm 40 years old, I make my living as a consultant, and I've never created a presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint. Clients occasionally look at me as if I'm from Mars when I show up without slides. I've found PowerPoint presentations to be superficial ways of delivering information. They are not actual presentations; they are, in fact, speaker's notes on which a real presentation should be built.
嗨!我是Jimmy,40歲。我以顧問工作謀生,而且我從來不曾用微軟的(簡報圖形軟體)PowerPoint做簡報(以下簡寫為PPT)。每當我出席會議卻不使用任何投影片時,客戶偶而會把我當成是火星人。我早已發現,用PowerPoint做簡報只是傳達訊息的表面途徑??--表面化或膚淺的方式罷了。它們並不是真正的簡報,事實上,它們是簡報者在寫一份真正的簡報時(用來提醒自己)的「便條」。Dilettanti, Society of
Originally a convivial gathering of rich young men who had been on the Grand Tour, it met in London from 1732, and developed as a serious supporter of architectural and archaeological explorations of Greece, the Middle East, and Italy, thereby laying the foundation for a systematic scholarly study of Classical antiquities. The Society financed a series of expeditions and published the results. Notable successes were The Antiquities of Athens (1762–1814) and Antiquities of Ionia (1769–1814). It was a powerful stimulus for the Neo-Classicism, especially the Greek Revival.
