These were really helpful tips, thank you. But I was disappointed in the typos on your slide about point 2. 🙁

I’m glad you found the tips helpful! I hadn’t noticed the typos before but see them now and I sent an email to Paul about them.
I once watched a keynote presentation at a conference and the presenter used “it’s” instead of “its” on several slides. I know that’s an easy mistake to make, even if you KNOW the difference, but I found it ridiculously distracting.
