Running in style – Pimp your presentation
Some of you will have seen my presentations and will have also seen the cool add-in that I use.
If you haven’t heard of pptplex go find it:
www.officelabs.com
It will make presentations in powerpoint a whole lot less linear and more interactive! However with a standard presenter mouse the forward and back functions do not work…..So I thought I’d push the boat out!
Get yourself the Microsoft wireless xbox 360 controller usb receiver:

Plug it in and sync up the controller. Then get your hands on xpadder:
www.xpadder.com
Now you can map your controller to normal keyboard/mouse features. This means that you can control your computer AND presentation even in pptplex as long as you are in wireless range AND allows you to still walk around the stage and maintain interest whilst looking very cool with an xbox controller in your hand! :)
PLUS not only that, but you can play all your PC games with a wireless Xbox controller (steering wheel and even guitar, AWESOME huh!?)
