While on the topic of presentations, I came across this video in the archives of Presentation Zen and then again on Bad Astronomy the same day. Coincidence or some hidden memetic process?

I think it’s an awesome example of how the worst PowerPoint presentations actually come across: as messages with zero entropy (that is, no information).

    Wait a minute, you can actually see what’s on the slides in the presentation since it appears they didn’t decide to shrink the font down to 12 point in order to cram more into each slide. So I’ve definitely seen presentations that are worse!
