NXPowerLite Desktop 9: Conversation with Mike Power

      Mike Power owns and runs Neuxpower, the company behind the popular compression software NXPowerLite, WeCompress, and now Slidewise, a PowerPoint font 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 NXPowerLite Desktop 9.

PowerPoint and Presenting News: November 17, 2020

We first look at presentation management as part of our ongoing series. This time, we explore social engagement, reporting, and updating of presentations. For many people who now have to join online meetings, the worries created are rather more than the usual jitters. A screen sits between you and the people you are speaking to. Kellie McCord of Toastmasters explains in her post that “rather than seeing it as a barrier, I like to remember that if our eyes are windows to our souls, then a screen is a window into someone’s world.” Next, we feature Kurt Dupont, who discusses BreakPoint, a new, free add-in for PowerPoint that lets you add countdowns, live clocks, weather information, and more in your slides. We also bring you a review of Synology’s new DS920+ NAS device.

For users of PowerPoint 2019 for Windows, we explore the Share Tab of Backstage View. Also, make sure you do not miss the quotes, press releases, and templates from the last few days.
