Small tip, if you're contemplating doing a talk, but you dread making
slides, then use org-present (https://github.com/rlister/org-present). You
just write an org file, do M-x org-present, and you're off. Just bump the
font size a bit. Each top level outline become its own "slide". It even
works with a clicker. I used it before for a presentation at the Clojure
meetup, it worked great.
