Here's just a sample of the issues I had with technology while preparing for or actually during a range of presentations in South Africa - me and technology clearly have a love/hate relationship that doesn't have a whole lot of trust!:
- room too light so video presentations can't be played
- microphone works during rehearsal and doesn't work as soon as I start to speak
- clicker to change slides runs out of batteries just as I start, then cordless mic also runs out of batteries in same presentation
- video records picture but no sound
- Plasma screen for my video presentation is faulty and keeps turning blue then red
- No speakers for sound
- Speakers and projector but no-one who knows how to use them
- Room echoing so mic of no use at all
- Speakers provided are crackly and distorts the sound on video
- Projector turns itself off every 5 minutes
And some people wonder why I still like to write on a flip chart during my presentations!
