Although the advances of technology have both complicated and simplified the task of the presentation, you must still remember that great speakers are "made, not born." Learning to be a better speaker is similar to learning any activity. Before becoming comfortable as a speaker you need to learn the skills and then actively seek to keep practicing those skills. Even though it may be intimidating and frustrating at first, the more experience you gain, the more proficient and professional you will become.
