To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.

Nice tip! I love keynote, it finally makes slideshow presentations useful. Presenting powerpoints should be a crime because it is mentally damaging to the viewers :P

You can also switch from a Keynote presentation to another application by pressing command + Tab.

@ Terry: You can also type the h key by pressing h!
ColonelSmith said 12:16PM on 1-27-2008
It's also useful if what your presenting involves software. If you want to demonstrate how it works you can just press h and work your magic.

very cool. I am always annoyed when a presenter crassly shows the inner workings of the presentation.

Does anyone know how Steve Job does his? I know he usually uses a future release of iWork, but he has always done the dimming thing... where the screen dims and he concentrates on one area. What software do you think he uses?

Try Mouseposé (http://www.boinx.com/mousepose/), that's what I use.
ipodrulz said 8:49AM on 1-27-2008
Yeah.. I have Mouseposé but what Steve does is actually inside the keynote presentation, and it's not controlled by the mouse, instead its just like a box.... ie. introducing the media keys on the new thin aluminium keyboard.

OmniDazzle puts the beat down on Mouseposé.

Does anyone know of a feature in Keynote that will allow you to setup a warning system so that you know how many key-presses you have until your next slide appears? I've heard people refer to this as "Breadcrumbs" and I believe I've seen it appear as small dots towards the bottom-right hand corner of the screen while running a presentation. Anybody have any idea what I'm talking about?

PS
Command + H in almost every application hides all windows and just shows icon in dock...

One handy way to do this is described in this post.

There's also a slide that highlights the effect in the presentation linked at the end of the article.

Holy crap, I can't believe I didn't know about this tip before now. I've been using Keynote to deliver 5-8 different presentations each week and I always figured you had to quit the presentation, expose the Keynote guts, then minimize to get to another app. I guess I've been schooled.
One question -- I tried this tip just now on a presentation that had animations in it, and when I clicked on the Keynote icon in the dock, the slide came back up but at the very beginning of all the animations. Is there a way to preserve the stage of the build you're on when you hit the "h" key?

To preserve the stage of the build, press the "f" key to "Freeze" before before the "h" key.

Until Keynote '08 fixes quicktime export timing with recorded timing like voiced over presentations, Apple is selling a product that does not work as advertised.
