An idea I’m keen to try for my next presentation is listening to the backchannel. Similar to the idea of TV presenters receiving directions from the production crew this might be a way to shape what you are saying based on what is being said at or about you. There are a couple of ways you could do this but the method I’ve found easiest to do is using Twitter SMS alerts and a ‘read aloud’ SMS notifier on my phone.
So the next time you see me present and I’ve got a headphone in one ear and a confused face you’ll know why. So do you think it’ll work? Will you be trying this recipe yourself? s this easier to setup on iPhone?
