Hello
Well... after several months or maybe even several years I am posting to my blog. I've got a couple ideas on what I can blog about during the next couple of weeks.
- Demystifying Ghosting and Unghosting -- IMO this will be a hot topic with the upcoming release of MOS 2007. Raymond Mitchell and I made some interesting discoveries while working at a customer site this week. I'm sure there will be a number of posts that the IW Team will have in this area related to migration from SharePoint v2 (WSS and SPS) to MOS 2007.
- Demystifying Users Security, Profiles, Members, etc., etc. in SPS v2 -- SharePoint v2 can be quite confusing when looking at all the place a "User" record exists. This isn't very exciting, but it needs some clarification. Plus, I like to use the term "Demystifying" in the topic...
- Creating a Framework for Accessing SharePoint List Data via Web Services -- Who knows if it is even necessary, but I think it's cool. Plus, it's using a framework similar to one I've used on other non-SharePoint projects. It's basically using the Data Mapper approach to map data coming from a SharePoint web service to a Domain Layer.
- General Consulting Topics -- I've been in the consulting world for over 7 years now. I've accumulated some thoughts / opinions on what I believe make a good -- no *great --consultant.
*Side Note: While driving home, I realized saying great in the item above may sound a little arrogant. I'm definitely not saying I'm a great consultant...
There it is. My first post. Jake - I wonder when you'll see this. You'll have to give me some feedback. Am I doing the link thing properly?
