We live in a presentations golden age. TED, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk… The most recognizable names in the modern West are famous for sharing ideas. It’s finally cool to be smart.
This trend is still new. The first TED Talks were only posted in 2006.
“Friends” -- one of the most popular sitcoms of all time -- frequently shows characters mocking “nerdiness”; Ross sucks because he loves dinosaurs and wants to talk about them. “Friends” feels new for an artifact, but this dialogue rings false...
The post deals with the state of creating and delivering presentations nowadays. Interesting viewpoint.
