I have seen my fair share of presentations in my life, both presented to me and those I have created and given. I have been collecting a number of resources and thought I would share them here.

1. Presentation Zen – Making your presentations in the TED style
If you have not seen a TED presentation prepare to get addicted as its an amazing collection of presentations that should inspire and influence you to no end.

2. The hierarchy of Presentations – Seth Godin
“The best presentation is no presentation at all” – definitely a good read

3. Design Fast Websites I have written about this one before but its an actual presentation that combines great images, the right amount of bullets, and a cohesive message – all without the original presenter giving it to you.

4. Need help building your presentation? checkout Ethos3

5. Want to build your presentation online? Checkout 280Slides

6. Want to share your presentation or embed it in a blog? Checkout SlideShare.com

7. Want to deliver a presentation like Steve Jobs? Checkout tips from a real communications coach

8. Want to learn how to interview better? Checkout these Web 2.0 interviews (ok, not a presentation but great help for both body language and tone while speaking)

9. Powerpoints are not your presentation

10. Seth Godin – Really bad powerpoint

    Great list Eric. Have read the the Seth Godin articles as well as Presentation Zen. Now while I am nowhere near as good as I need to be in terms of presentations…I definitely have learned a TON from these resources.

    I use delicious to tag everything and realized I had this great list and
    wanted to share it – its old news to many, but having it all in one place is
    helpful too. I do not think you can ever be perfect at presenting which is
    why it is a work in progress for life.

    The best new presentation resource, which I'm sure you are aware of, is Prezi. The presentations are animated, clean and fun to watch. With the right functionality, it has the ability to completely disrupt Powerpoint's market. However, I'm not sure their software is geared for all types of presentations.

    I think Prezi works well for certain things and not great for others. Checkout the spark homepage for an interesting use case
