Argues that using SVG instead of PowerPoint produces memorable architecture diagrams by showing concrete steps: build diagrams in Inkscape, pull SVG maps and icons from Wikipedia, edit the XML source to script color or font changes, and import SVG into PowerPoint when needed. Claims SVG is scalable, open (part of HTML5), and editable so diagrams can be recolored or fixed with search‑and‑replace; demonstrates this workflow and reports it works in presentations and wikis.
