DID YOU KNOW?

PowerPoint, the presentation program is part of Microsoft's Office Suite. The original plan for its name was "Presenter". For the three years that it took to develop the program, the developers called it the Presenter. The company found out that the trademark for the label ‘Presenter’ was already taken. One of the creators, Robert Gaskins, thought of the name PowerPoint while he was in the shower, and the name stuck. The “Power” in PowerPoint is to mean empowerment, as the program empowers the presenter. The program's development was for the Apple Macintosh computer. Microsoft bought the company that created it, Forethought, Inc., for $14 million in 1987. It was part of Microsoft Office from the beginning of the program’s history. It's offered along with Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. PowerPoint is the second most used tool in the suite, after the word processor Word.

With more than 1 billion installations, about 30 million users create presentations every day. These are by approximately 500 million users of the program worldwide. Around 120 million people worldwide use PowerPoint for business and educational purposes. With technology, PowerPoint remote controls and smartphone apps we invented for presentations. This enabled to users to control their presentation from a distance. PowerPoint controllers became a thing. Apps to control powerpoint from iPhone or Android devices became popular. Aside from these uses, PowerPoint is also a medium for art by David Byrne. He is the lead singer and guitarist of the band Talking Heads. He creates PowerPoint-based artworks using the built-in graphics tools in the program.
