Mike Power owns and runs Neuxpower, the company behind the popular compression software NXPowerLite, WeCompress, and now Slidewise, a PowerPoint fonts and media add-in. He has been running Neuxpower for more than 20 years, which makes him feel a tiny bit old. Although he generally has a company to run, he loves nothing more than getting stuck into designing software. He’s particularly fussy (some might say meticulous) about ensuring that Neuxpower retains a focus on simple, unfussy software that just gets the job done.
In this conversation, Mike talks about the new version of Slidewise.

Do you get angry when an AutoCorrect feature changes what you type instantly? Yes, this feature can be both a blessing and a curse. We look at both AutoCorrect options in PowerPoint 365 for Windows, and also how you can create and edit AutoCorrect entries so that you can turn off what you don’t need, and actually make AutoCorrect be helpful for what you require. Also, the second edition of the best-selling Building PowerPoint Templates v2 book has been released, and we feature both authors, Echo Swinford and Julie Terberg in separate interviews.
We also look at how you can manage and remove Connected Services such as multiple OneDrive accounts in PowerPoint 365 for Windows. We also bring you quotes, press releases, and templates from the last few days.

By Brad Revell, Toastmasters International
The 2020s continue to invent new words to make sense of the new world we live in, including our use of the internet. One such term is netiquette. Netiquette has had its etymological evolution from the word etiquette. Whilst etiquette is focused on the conduct and behavior observed in social life, netiquette refers to this aspect of governance from the perspective of the Internet.
I have learned and experienced many things in my time as a technology executive and as a Toastmaster. As an executive, I have the latest tools and technologies at my fingertips (e.g. “The What”). Yet, as a Toastmaster, I have built foundations of communication, public speaking, and leadership (i.e. “The Why and How”). My aim is to share some of the key tips, tricks, and lessons on netiquette through each lens.
