PRESENTATION: The Ultimate TED Talk

How can you create the ultimate TED talk?

= How can you deliver the ultimate presentation at TED.com (the world-famous conference of the greatest thinkers and leaders)?

That’s a question Sebastian Wernicke gives us an answer to in his highly fun and exciting presentation. Have a look for yourself:

Great things about his presentation:

Passion/Humor: His excitement and fun about the topic jumps over to us.

Surprise: He shocks with interesting facts of what makes a great talk.

Facts/Examples: He gives lots of examples based on actual research (his comparisons of good-bad examples are simply terrific).

Structure: He focuses on 3 key points – topic, delivery, visuals.

Things he “could” improve:

Participation: If he involved some audience member, it could be even more fun.

Slide Clicker: He should practice using the slide clicker in a more natural way (or if the clicker’s size is the problem, change to a small clicker).

INNOVATION: iPool®

How can you clean your contact lenses and carry them around more easily and in style?

iPool, has the answer. 

This newly created contact lenses cleaner, which I found visiting the Korean Retail and Wholesale Fair, persuades with its fun look, anti-bacterial case and convenient-to-carry functionality.

Have a look at an intro video (not-best-quality-though): 

P.S. The price I paid when I bought it there was GREAT compared to what I found on amazon.com, but not sure about the price when it hits the global market.

To your success,
