One of the biggest problems with PowerPoint is that it tends to feel a bit staccato. Slide, followed by slide, followed by slide. Asking a rhetorical question that links to the next slide helps create a sense of conversational flow.

Many people of extraordinary knowledge and authority have a tendency to be slightly pompous and self-regarding, and the thing about Chris is he’s very self-effacing. He’s modest about his extraordinary intellectual abilities and he’s a thoroughly decent human being of the type that society desperately needs more of. I wish we could clone him and have hundreds of Chris Whittys.” The PM's allies have claimed that he will not resign even if he is fined by the Metropolitan Police for breaching Covid rules.

In the late ’40s, multimedia was a novelty. But by the early 1960s, nearly all companies with national advertising budgets were using multimedia gear—16-­millimeter projectors, slide projectors, filmstrip projectors, and overheads—in their sales training and promotions, for public relations, and as part of their internal communications. Many employed in-house A/V directors, who were as much showmen as technicians. Because although presentations have a reputation for being tedious, when they’re done right, they’re theater. The business world knows it. Ever since the days of the Vitarama, companies have leveraged the dramatic power of images to sell their ideas to the world. Next slide, please At this scale, PowerPoint’s impact on how the world communicates has been immeasurable. But here’s something that can be measured: Microsoft grew tenfold in the years that Robert Gaskins ran its Graphics Business Unit, and it has grown 15-fold since. Technology corporations, like PowerPoint itself, have exploded. And so have their big presentations, which are no longer held behind closed doors. They’re now semi-public affairs, watched—willingly and enthusiastically—by consumers around the world. Nobody has to worry about slide carousels getting jammed anymore, but things still go haywire all the time, from buggy tech demos to poorly-thought-out theatrics. Labour MP Fabian Hamilton raised the photo in PMQs - and contrasted the merriment to a constituent who was unable to have visits from her family while having cancer treatment. The crisis has demanded dedication and stamina, but Whitty has also needed the trust of those around him. One of his skills has been to maintain the confidence of politicians and academics – two groups that do not always see eye to eye, Prof David Heymann notes. “That is quite an accomplishment: it takes integrity to satisfy both groups.” With PowerPoint Live, In the meeting, everyone other than the current person presenting the slides will see the slide the presenter is presenting, but they also have a “Take Control” button.

This is despite a smaller festive quiz held in the Cabinet Office just two days later being looked at. Whitty’s supporters are defensive of mistakes in the early days of the outbreak, when he was among those who believed a flu pandemic was the best model for understanding what the UK was facing. They point out that scant evidence was filtering out from China – and say it was better to take decisions than await the fuller certainty that came with time.I’m really looking forward to seeing family and friends, I’ve not seen family and friends for a very long time, like most people,” he told a virtual event last month hosted by the Royal College of Physicians. “I’m really looking forward to getting out of London. I’m in London to work, not because I wish to live in London, and getting out to the hills in England and the mountains in Scotland, that’s a very distant, but very attractive dream.” And yet Whitty is at his most devastating when he calls out wrongdoing. In a Gresham lecture on lung cancer last month, he was clear where blame lay for the most common cancer death in Britain. “This is cancer entirely for profit,” he said. “Almost all of the people who get this cancer … have got the cancer, because an extremely wealthy, incredibly sophisticated marketing industry – the cigarette industry – has got them addicted to cigarettes at a young age and kept them addicted the rest of their lives, and then they die. This should never be a cancer blamed on individuals. This is a cancer created by industry for profit.” The last slide projector ever made rolled off the assembly line in 2004. The inside of its casing was signed by factory workers and Kodak brass before the unit was handed over to the Smithsonian. Toasts and speeches were made, but by then they were eulogies, because PowerPoint had already eaten the world. Inventing PowerPoint
