September 2009

Greetings, fellow data analysts!

Even the fast-paced world of computers isn't exempt from anachronisms. How often do we click on a disk symbol – yet how often do we save something to a 3.5 inch disk nowadays? Currently, slides are experiencing a similar fate. People talk about slides, project them on all types of walls, and produce masses of new slides every day – but not in polyester. Nevertheless, the good old over­head slides still exist. Resolution is a common quality criterion in data­sheets that are designed to steer

purchasing decisions in a certain direction. And in most cases, that resolution is suitable for modern laser printers. A modern projector, however, wastes its pixels in a resolution that any old dot matrix printer could beat. Why ... when resolution is such an important criterion for management informa­tion? What substantial advantage should new presentation techniques have over traditional ones? One option would be interactivity. The content of a printed slide doesn't change. A computer screen displayed on a projector, however, can. We can dynamically steer what our audience sees.

It's too bad that only the effects are dynamic in most presentation software. So it's a good thing that the contents in DeltaMaster are dynamic. How long do you think that presentation programs will still be in line with the times?

Best regards,
