Yes, sort of like posting to twitter, 140 characters or less. I hate going to presentations where the presenter reads the slide. Tells me they don't have very much respect for their audience.
Text slides for handouts after the presentation so people have something to take home after the event. 2-3 sentences or as Steven Kaye said, 3-5 bullet points for the presentation that you give.

There's a fine line between what the audience can read and what you read to them. I'd think they'd want more later to review.

Good point. So put up some lines of text per slide?

Now I try to ppt Twitter tweet style. But my audience wants the slides. Hm. Maybe two versions?
I never read a whole slide. That's a crime against the audience.

yes. how much of a challenge is two versions?

Two versions is a healthy challenge. Perhaps the task is make text-heavy slides, then cut 3-4 sentences per slide for the presentation.
