When people ask me where my office is, I’ve often joked that it’s my Chevy Silverado. That’s probably more true than I’d like it to be; I do spend a lot of my time driving between clients (or on airplanes, in which case my office address switches to seat 20B). Lately I’ve been filling the […]

Sooner or later, every blogger who also happens to be a consultant encounters the same scenario. You learn something during a client engagement and blog about it – being careful never to name the client or give any identifying information – in order to share valuable information with the community at large so some poor […]

Sometimes, we take all this SharePoint stuff way too seriously. Every now and then we need to lighten it up a bit and have a good chuckle (or three). Take a gander at the shenanigans when Bob Fox, Rob Foster, Spence Harbar, Ben Robb, Andrew Woodward, and myself found ourselves with a video camera and […]

The agenda for the UK Best Practices conference is now online. I’m really looking forward to taking the Best Practices format for a spin over the pond. If you’re considering any SharePoint-related conferences this year, this is the one to go to. There’s just no substitute for real-world solutions presented by experts who have been […]

After taking a break for the holidays the D/FW SharePoint Community is back in action for January. Be sure to stick around for the Developer breakout session – I’ll be presenting data aggregation techniques for SharePoint lists, a small preview of the content in my presentation at the upcoming Best Practices conferences in San Diego […]

One of the best parts of my job is being able to travel the world and meet new people everywhere I go. I have so many friends in so many corners of the globe that it’s hard to keep track of them all. While everyone has a slightly different tradition over the holidays, I believe […]

This coming year we have not one but two Best Practices conferences on the calendar and the good news is that the folks across the pond are finally getting a chance to participate. The first conference is being held in San Diego, California on the 2nd – 4th of February. The second takes place in […]

On December 16th I’ll be doing a webcast on integrating Windows Live Services with SharePoint.  I can only go so deep in an hour but there’s some good code in there on hooking your SharePoint sites up to use Live ID and such.  If you’re interested, the link just went live for registration.    My […]

Friend and fellow devhead Rajesh Satluri has (finally!) begun blogging on SharePoint development topics.  Rajesh is a Senior Architect at Argus Software (www.arguszone.com is almost entirely his work).  I’ve worked with Rajesh several times on various projects and he’s one of the smartest SharePoint devs around.  I’ve been pestering him for years to get a […]

Today is the second and last day of Tulsa Techfest 2008. The day started with Dennis Bottjer talking about SharePoint performance. He had some good tips for architects and administrations and event hit on some development topics. The second Birds of a Feather session went well, with my old Chicken Dancing buddy Steve Walker sitting […]
