PowerPoint was the first presentation software designed for Macintosh and Windows, received the first venture capital investment ever made by Apple, then became the first significant acquisition ever made by Microsoft, and is now, twenty-five years later, installed on over one billion computers worldwide. Robert Gaskins (who invented the idea, managed its design and development, and then headed the new Microsoft group) has written this book to commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of PowerPoint, recounting stories of the perils narrowly evaded as a startup, dissecting the complexities of being the first distant development group in Microsoft, and explaining decisions and insights that enabled PowerPoint to become a lasting success.

What a wonderful read

2022年1月31日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Ok, to start with, this is an incredibly dense read. There’s a lot of detail and superfluous information, which is arguably part of Gaskins’s 1980s developer charm. Gaskins, as he says upfront, kept vast binders of meticulous meeting notes and wrote company histories so he draws from these as well as from discussions with others.

The result is an excellent overview of successful product design and management, business strategy and management and how culture changes. There isn’t any lurid detail and the closest you feel to some of the more human aspects are some brief moments of praise for colleagues (and Bill Gates). He’s clearly affectionate for his time with Forethought and Microsoft but this isn’t an emotional tell-all.

This is a surprising find and I’m glad I read it.

Unlikely absorbing read

Robert Gaskins recounts the surprising story of how PowerPoint came into being. I always assumed that it was simply created by a faceless division of Microsoft to fill an obvious market need along with Word and Excel. But that's not how it was at all. The real story is more along the lines of one man with a half-crazy vision who happened to find himself with the chance to work on his life's dream in the course of trying to rescue a failing startup. Which he and his coworkers finally did, against the odds and with a cash infusion from Apple. They then promptly sold themselves to Microsoft, as an alternative to launching an IPO, shrewdly as it turned out.

The author tells, in an engaging and never less than interesting style, of his adventures as a creative individual the in the world of business, overcoming crises, wearily trying to keep the ship afloat, eventually finding success, and then facing a whole new set of challenges. It's a great story affectionately and charmingly told, full of asides, subplots and local colour and with some memorable quotes (I particular liked the one about translators being the saddest pack of rogues in the world).

I am not a tech person but someone who has used PowerPoint in teaching and research presentations for close to 20 years. This book has opened my eyes to what a revolutionary invention it really is, and how it has changed the world (among other things vicars use it to give sermons, apparently). But above all it's a lesson in how to make an 'official' history (albeit a personal one) readable and enjoyable. Check it out.

A chronicle of the thinking and implementation that created a immensely dominant application.

2012年12月19日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

"Sweating Bullets" is the true story of how to get a "killer application" to the market first, with breakthrough capabilities, then prosper in the world's foremost OS and application corporation, and stay at the top for decades. No small task.

Robert Gaskins eloquently describes his path from his early vision, to building a team, through being acquired by Microsoft to make PowerPoint the dominant presentation platform worldwide.

At a time when some of the world was still bound to command line interfaces and graphics capabilities in computers were limited, Bob Gaskins saw the demand and set about creating the presentation tool that is the world standard even twenty years later.

"Sweating Bullets" also describes the alliance with Genigraphics which was key to early successes of both firms and which accomplished the only direct embedding of an external service in a Microsoft application. The entrepreneurs of Genigraphics, like Bob's PowerPoint team, were inventors and pioneers in so much of what is still the preeminent world-wide presentation platform.

More than a dairy, Bob recounts the thought processes that guided the development and marketing of the product, and that way of thinking is as potent today as it was then.

Spanning technology, negotiation, marketing, cultures and technological convergence, this book is essential reading for any technology entrepreneur, developer or marketer who must navigate creating and growing new technologies for new and changing markets.

A Great Read

2012年8月27日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

A fascinating chronicle of the development of PowerPoint but also provides insights into the development of the PC/MAC and even of Silicon Valley. Gaskins captured day to day developments over the period in his notes which now form the detailed, factual base for his narrative.

It could also easily serve as a business school case or even a guide for starters-up.

A visit to the author's website is well worthwhile.

Inventing PowerPoint

2012年6月25日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This is an excellent read on the development of one of the world's best known software from the developer himself. Mr. Gaskins kept a daily journal of the thousands of decisions that went into the development of PowerPoint which has sold a billion copies and whose name is now a generic verb around the world.
Software development isn't easy, but Gaskins gives us a well-written insider's view of the early days of PCs, Silicon Valley, and Microsoft.
