Commentary and notes:

Your presentation was wonderful. I especially liked the contrast between the topic slides and the demonstration slides. When you were using the topic slides you spoke directly to the audience and the information on the slides did not distract from you, the presenter. Then when you had a presentation slide up you had the audience focus on the material on the screen. The resources you provided will be a great help to me in the redesign of professional website. – Presentation attendee.
