SharePoint journeys
Have you heard? We launched a unique online video contest called SharePoint journeys, which is a platform for our customers and partners to tell us where they are on their SharePoint ?journey,? as well as the unique ways they?ve used SharePoint to enhance their organizations. http://www.sharepointjourneys.com. Through these videos, we want SharePoint professionals to share and review their work, inspire each other to think about SharePoint in new ways, and take the next step on their journey. Right now the site only allows for submissions, but as videos come in we will turn on the interactive pieces of the site that will allow for social media sharing, commenting on videos, and the ability to embed videos into personal blogs.

How to use Team Foundation Server to Manage the SharePoint Life Cycle
2/3/2011 12:00 PM Mountain Time (US & Canada)
SharePoint has made tremendous impact in the enterprise for several reasons ?affordability, ease of implementation, and rapid application deployment opportunities. For these same reasons SharePoint has introduced risk in the organization because effective development practices are not viewed as necessary or useful for SharePoint deployments. SharePoint is a powerful platform for Rapid Application Development (RAD) and often has an even shorter lifecycle than traditional RAD projects. In this session we will discuss and demonstrate the role that TFS plays in the effective management of SharePoint implementations and custom development. Requirements, testing, version control, and deployment of custom features for SharePoint will be demonstrated using TFS and VS 2010.
