I think there is a place for this kind of article. Someone who has just given their first talk may be able to relate to the needs of other soon-to-be first-timers more closely than an experienced speaker. Also, I think an article like this serves the author by forcing self-analysis of his or her procedure and discovering the ways of improving the process for future speaking engagements.
- visakanv 13y agoAgreed, but the title should be "Post-mortem of my first talk" or "What I learned from my first talk" rather than "How to give a talk", imho. Otherwise it's just misleading and disrespectful to readers. Maybe I'm oversensitive about these things.
