Today I am speaking at the SharePoint Saturday event in Dallas Texas. The event is being held at the Los Colinas Microsoft Campus. Even though that's where I am actually based out of, it took an event like this to get me to actually come to Dallas :-)

I am speaking in the Architecture Track. My topic is "SharePoint Web Content Management Solution Overview". I am going to be covering a reference application that is representative of a complex WCM Project in SharePoint.

I'll be posting the slide deck and my end of day notes after the presentation.

Happy SharePointing !!

Tulsa SharePoint Group - Web Content Management for the Enterprise Developer

i am speaking tonight at the Tulsa SharePoint Group. I will be delivering a talk that has two goals.

1) Explain to the audience the reasoning and methodology behind a successful Web Content Management project using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server.

2) Dig into some technical examples of a multi-tenet, multi-lingual Web Content Management System.

Most of my projects have not been your typical "Single Company, Single Portal" implemenetations but have been provisioned applications built upon the SharePoint Platform. While many of these topics I am covering apply in these types of applications, hopefully all will find some use in the concepts shown.

I will be posting my Slide Deck tonight after the meeting. Look forward to the meeting !

Happy SharePointing !

SharePoint Saturday - Tulsa Edition

I am speaking today at the SharePoint Saturday Event in Tulsa Oklahoma. Just finished the Architecture Roundtable and am now sitting in Corey Roth's Development session.

There are SO MANY great sessions and it's going to be hard to choose which ones I want to sit in on !!!

I am speaking later this afternoon on SharePoint Administration - Deploying custom code and configuration. I typically do not speak to the administration track but I think that there is some merit to helping Administrators understand how thier developers SHOULD be packaging up code for deployment into SharePoint.

If you don't have anything else to do today and want to learn about SharePoint, Come on out to the TCC Northeast Campus and join in the fun !!!

Happy SharePointing !!!

SharePoint Saturday NYC

I am speaking tomorrow at the SharePoint Saturday event in New York City. The event is taking place at the Microsoft Offices on the Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan.

I am presenting a Developer's Roundtable on Web Content Management in MOSS from a developer's perspective.

I was planning on giving a presentation on SharePoint Site Definitions - Why they aren't QUITE as evil as most folks would have you believe. I know this topic has caused quite a lot of turmoil in the user community so before you start flaming me and blasting me as a SharePoint Heretic, remember, you should always be wary of people that say "Never Use Site Defintions" and also of people that say "Always Use Site Definitons" :-) The purpose of the talk to is enlighten folks on when they are useful and how they can be used effectively.

I am also sitting in with Bob Fox, Dan Attis (and others) on an Ask The Experts Session at the end of the day as well.

Thanks to Michael Lotter for inviting me up to the event !

Looking forward to meeting al of you SharePointers in the NYC Area !!!

PS - I just found out today that I will be presenting in the same time slot as Joel Oleson, and that another speaker in that time slot will be lighting his guitar on fire to try to pull in a few folks from Joel's session. Sounds like I may be presenting to myself !!!!!

Happy SharePointing !!!!

Kansas City Day of .NET

I had a good time presenting at the Kansas City Day of .NET. Thanks Becky Isserman and Lee Brandt for inviting me up to speak. Least I could do since Becky came all of the way down to our TechFest in Tulsa to present :-)

Sat in on some great sessions. Michael Lotter's session was insightful and Todd Bleeker's session was energetic as always.

I promised to post my slide deck so here is a link.

Thanks again to the Kansas City Office Geeks ! Hope to see you again when you get your SharePoint Saturday arranged !
