Dalia & All,    (01)

Thanks ... that is part of the expectation (some people will only be
running slides on their desktop, and advancing on the speakers'
prompts.)    (02)

In fact, even if the presenters have access to the shared screen, I
would remind them that they need to prompt the slide advance and call
out the slide number *every time.* ... Remember: as our past records
show, we can expect a hundreds-to-thousands times bigger "async
audience" - these are people who will "participate" later and rely on
the audio archive and slides for their participation) and the verbal
cue is all they have to stay synchronized, and be captivated by your
talks in such settings.    (03)

Thanks & regards. =ppy
