I learned what Hawaiians say lol. This presentation is an interesting way of conveying ideas, it keeps the reader in tune with the info you are providing. It reduces a lengthy paper into a series of short points, which helps keep the readers attention. It also inspires the reader to click the "next" button and find out what cool crazy animation is coming next as well as that new point the author is going to make. The use of a video is also a good visual aid.
