[Editors] Pecha Kucha: Get to the PowerPoint in 20 Slides

[Janet Wasserstein]

For all of you who have nearly fallen off your seats with boredom  
while presenters read text from their ppt. slides for hours on end,  
here is something you should know about: "pecha kucha". Each presenter  
is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds each.  I just did a  
google search to learn more about it but the best explanation is at:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NZOt6BkhUg 
  and only lasts seven minutes.

If you want to learn about how to give a better powerpoint  
presentation you should know about this! It may be old news but I just  
learned about it today!
