PowerPoint preview and edit

I'm one of those people who love to do multiple things at one time. I can listen to a movie, work and have the washer and dryer chugging away in the background while I'm planning a weekend art project.

That's why I love today's tip. It lets you preview a PowerPoint presentation at the same time as you edit it.

Simply, choose Slide Show and while clicking View Show, hold the Control key. You'll see your slide show on the screen in the top left corner and PowerPoint visible in the remaining area. You can work on the show and preview it (and your changes) the same time.. neat idea?
