When I look back at it now I'm amazed at how much better my presentations could have been if I would have started on paper. I love using Duarte Design's idea of sticky notes - that way you can move them around and really be creative! Good post.

Calling out names for ideas or questions. Make it a game at the beginning just so your audience knows that you plan to keep them on their toes as well.
