I've become something of a PowerPoint social critic (e.g., here and here). Here's a good example, a hilariously novel way to register a customer complaint--Yours Is a Very Bad Hotel. HT to Nancy Rapaport at MoneyLaw, a new favorite blog of mine. (Also not to be missed in her post is a link to the PowerPoint for the Gettysburg Address).

The power point presentation on the hotel reservation is quite funny. But query whether the guest was somewhat to blame by not making a courtesy call to the hotel, warning of the very late arrival. And to shame someone in cyberspace like this seems rather extreme and uncivil. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, eh?

(In short, it was never intended for public distribution, to hear the authors' version)

Thanks, Dan, for the link. Looks like it had a happy ending for all concerned (even Doubletree?). And I agree, Tim, maybe the creators had a little too much time on their hands that week. Still, a novel twist on PowerPoint.
