Today I feel like I’m getting better at giving demos. I had to give one presentation and two demos at work today, and that would used to have bothered me a lot more than it did. I think I’m getting better at it.

I think I speak slower, and more clearly, and in a way that could somehow be construed as to demonstrate that I know what I’m talking about. Most of that is just fluff though, mind.

The first presentation was to the Programme Board, which includes my boss and the CEO and the CPO and the ETC, and it went surprisingly without hitch.

Later on, I demoed something to my peers, and I actually found that harder. I think it’s because my presentation was with numbers, and numbers soothe me because they are always reliable, whereas my demo was with technology, which is likely to let you down.

Until tomorrow, I dunno, I just felt like it was a good day.
