Digital PowerPoint Timer
The second in our series of slides for use in your own conferences and training events. This 20-minute countdown timer has been created and animated within PowerPoint. Use it to make sure that delegates know when the next session is going to start, and entirely how long they can spend sipping coffee and checking their email.
This PowerPoint timer looks like a digital countdown timer (from a famous Fox TV show); we also have a more retro PowerPoint countdown timer for those who prefer that look.
Simply download the PowerPoint slides, set the timer by starting on the correct slide, hit F5, and off you go. Have a great event – remember, your slides will be more effective if you don’t use bullet points.

Gary Boyes, Sales Director, NorthgateArinsom62 has been able to quickly interpret our proposition, understand, and articulate our values in a way we had not considered previously. The end result is not just a presentation: it’s a new approach, a new methodology and a new belief. We can now truly demonstrate the benefits of our service and our key differentiators.

Beautifully crafted visually but unfortunately it takes an additional 10 sec to load each slide before it counts down so the timer is very inaccurate.
Any suggestions?

Jim, we obviously tested the file, and it’s working fine for us. Which I guess isn’t that useful for you…
There are two things that could cause unacceptable lag in switching between slides – one is PowerPoint itself, the other is your computer.
This sequence was designed in PowerPoint 2003, and can run with glitches in 2007. (It runs OK in 2010, and for some set-ups in 2007.) If your computer is not fast graphically that might also cause some delays.
If you let us know what your set-up is we might be able to craft a solution, for you and visitors in similar situations.

Thanks a Lot!
When you said free to download and to use it. Can we use it at Home, College, company without any payment or license to use it?

Yep, at home, college, or at your company. It can’t be resold or modified for resale though. This is our gift to our readers.
If you like the slides, maybe tell some people about us, that would be great!
