PowerPoint Invasion?

by Jared Alberghini
7 replies
Ok, so at first I thought it was a spam-bot going wild when I saw 7 threads right next to each other here in the main forum with PowerPoint in the title...

So..., why all the sudden questions about powerpoint? was there a live seminar promoting the use of pp that just ended or something? newsletter? what did I miss?

I'm not just seeing things... I took a screenshot if you don't believe me :rolleyes:



Just seems odd to me... never really see many threads about PP, and then WHAM...

gotta be some strange reason behind it... it's bugging me till I figure it out... anyone out there have any clues?

.jrd

Edit: Crap, now there are 8... I'm not helping am I :confused:

    Jared,

    I think it gets down to so many people jumping on the (already fast moving) video marketing bandwagon.

    Most people understand how to use PowerPoint, and have it installed on their PC. If they can get a tool or find an easy way to convert it to a video without much effort, then it's the easy route to take to become a "video marketer".

    Just my guess.

      Nicely put, I would really pay attention to these types of "surges"
      of intrest.

    If you'd looked closely, you would have seen that
    some dumbass was spamming Powerpoint threads
    with a link to a PP conversion software.

    Maybe not the "genius" he thought he was?

      Ahhh... I see, said the blind man pissing into the wind...

      Good catch John, I just saw that the threads were started by legit members and didn't even think of checking for a thread grave digger...

      Apparently he was smarter than me...

      Yeah, some "genius"! Looks like all he managed to do was to get his posts deleted.

      I was curious about this also. Thanks for clearing that up.
