It is regarded by many as the most useful and accessible way to create and present visual aids to the audience.

A political party has even formed to ban PowerPoint in Switzerland.

This story is from PowerPointless , an episode of Seriously It was presented by Ian Sansom and produced by Conor Garrett. To listen to more episodes of Seriously Adapted by Sarah Keating.
