Making your own profile just for presentations seems like a simple solution to this problem.<BR/><BR/>This would also alleviate a problem I sometimes find when I am watching presentations, which I'm sure most people have experienced. There is a prestigious speaker about to give a powerpoint presentation. However, before he or she can load it up, they must troll through their computer to find the presentation, all the while the projector in the room shows all their personal files , inappropriate files, and obscure and weird desktop background to the audience. By the time the presenter has the powerpoint online, the audience has already started to form an impression about the speaker.<BR/><BR/>Using a profile just for this purpose will alleviate this problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35758167.post-3636256099676750422008-05-28T09:08:00.000-07:002008-05-28T09:08:00.000-07:00Yeah, I'm still tweaking this process, but it's so...Yeah, I'm still tweaking this process, but it's so nice and clean that it's worth it to have a few straggler files around.Lisa Braithwaitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203279973932837403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35758167.post-29790493945129111632008-05-28T06:42:00.000-07:002008-05-28T06:42:00.000-07:00So simple, yet so brilliant.

I do a lot of storage on my desktop for files I'm going to use immediately. However, a few tweaks here and there to my processes should take care of that issue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
