your presentation is first rate

congrats

if I had two tips they would be: don't drink water right at the beginning, and watch the 'ok's.

good luck!

One suggestion is that when the other people are talking or when they want to ask a question you have a lecturn with a microphone, so you can easily hear their questions.

You're looking good, your talk is interesting but most of all ...this clip gives you credibility.

You seemed to warm up after a few nervous moments, which is normal. One comment: to make the audience more lively and you less nervous, if you do this lecture again, you should start with the myspace vs facebook discussion and then go back to the answer to your question regarding same. They really loosened up when they could relate and that, in effect, also loosened you up.

You showed a great deal of respect for your audience by entertaining so many opinions - that seemed to also make them more interactive.

You did a masterful job of articulating your content. Your expertise really shows in your delivery and message. I'll refer back to this presentation as a reference tool for research on this topic.

Thanks for sharing the information.

Hey nice job. Very personable, friendly and casual. You obviously know your stuff – and it really shows. I could really see a big difference in this presentation and the one I saw a while back (sorry, can’t remember the details but it was a few months ago). You have a very professional “presence” and you have a great gift of speaking to (rather than down to) your audience. Keep up the great work.

Nice job. These types of presentations definitely increase you credibility.

The only constructive criticism I have is that you stayed on the one side of the room during the whole presentation. I suggest occasionally move from one side of the screen to the other side. This would make the presentation more dynamic. Also, when a individual asks a question from the side of the room opposite of where you are, I would move to that side to visually show that you really care about what they are saying.

Again, just my $.02. Great job!

Extremely informative lecture. I know how challenging speaking in front of an audience can be. Once the nervousness settled, you delivered an engaging presentation. Your knowledge and experience really shined through.
