1 of 36 (PowerPoint MVPs Worldwide)
Last month, I was very excited to announce Microsoft extended the MVP (Most Valuable Professional) for PowerPoint recognition to me for another year, my 10th year. A few people asked how many MVPs for PowerPoint there are.
On the Microsoft MVP site, it lists 36 PowerPoint experts in the MVP program. Later this month, I will be on the Microsoft campus in Washington state with many of the other MVPs in sessions with the PowerPoint Program Managers and Devs going over feature requests, issues and providing insight into real-world use of PowerPoint.

Monte Carlo Show
Monaco has been a wonderful location for a meeting! Local AV crew have been great, hotel-town-and views all fantastic, and of course the amount of PowerPoint presentation needs incredible. Lori and I are wrapping up a week of meetings and taking the long flight back to California in a few days.

San Diego Show
Things are exciting at TLC Creative Services as we have more and more multiple shows happening simultaneously. This week, I am in Monaco, Amber has been in New York and Jennifer in San Diego.
Jennifer has been handling the pre-show design and showsite presentation execution in San Diego for a great end client and production company.

PowerPoint for Website Mockup
This year, TLC Creative Services finally updated its website (which is still in process). I am very happy with the new site and additional information it provides. When developing applications, and websites, PowerPoint can be a great tool in the initial stages.
For example, here is the TLC website mocked up in PowerPoint.
Each item is a separate, and editable, PowerPoint shape. The navigation labels can be revised, their order adjusted and the drop down menus revised.
Just another example of using the flexibility of PowerPoint to accomplish more than just “slides.”
