A tongue-in-cheek presentation with 3 tips to avoid being a PowerPoint criminal. These are slides from a humorous/informative speech I wrote for a recent Toastmasters meeting. I've modified the presentation since then so that it can stand on its own. Spanish Version (thanks to David Gomez): http://www.slideshare.net/mercadeobienpensado/no-sea-un-criminal-del-powerpoint
