Oral presentations are difficult and Chapter 17 gives some good tips for making them great. I like the idea of thinking about your listeners and communication goals. This goes back to always thinking about your readers when writing communications but is especially important when giving oral presentations. Making sure you are within the time limits is also important. Visual aids always offer added difficultly. Trying to juggle them around and know what your saying can be hard. I have always done an outlines talk which makes knowing what to say easier and you will probably feel more at ease. The book lays out that you should make certain your listeners are able to follow what you are saying. I suggest presenting to someone for their input before the actual presentation.
I have never designed a web page or website but chapter 14 has some good ideas about how to make them great. Anticipate you readers and know what they want. Without this you will never have any readers. Mapping out the site is always a nice touch for usability. Visually, the site must be appealing so people will want to stay and see what you have to say.
