Are Bullets Coming Back?

For years, we have heard how bad it was to use the dreaded bullets in PowerPoint. And now…we have a new way to present…virtually.

Do the old “rules” apply to this new form of presentation?

I’ve seen several online presentations where the speaker has used bullets. Some even read the bullets as they appear on the screen.

Although I don’t like bullets when speaking with real people in front of me, I must admit that I’m tempted to use them more often now that we are online. Bulleted text alone does not look very good. However, when you put an interesting graphic next to it (like Camille) it looks pretty good…at least in my silly opinion.

How about you?
