This is the winner of the Best PowerPoint Presentation of 2006.  It is based on a viral video about our changing civilized world.

Even without the presenter moving the story along, it is compelling.  You can step through the slides at your pace. 

 

I have taken these slides and added the sound from the original viral video plus some animation for a no-need-for-you-to-click version.

 

This 6-minute slide show video version is a 17MB flash file.  It will take a moment to download depending on your connection speed.  It is worth the wait. 

 

Finally, if you are running on a Windows computer, this ShiftHappens.exe file will run on your PC in 800 x 600 mode.  (The file is only 9MB.  Sorry Mac users, I don't know how to make an executable file for a Mac computer.)
