SharePoint update!

November 11, 2008

I attended the keynote session this morning presented by Tom Rizzo, the Director of SharePoint at Microsoft, and it was very interesting actually, I enjoyed it a lot better than the SQL Server Keynote Monday night…A couple of things to mention:  The SharePoint Infrastructure update is up and available for download now for 32 and 64 bit OS, and you can check it out here.

He also talked about Windows Azure which is a cloud services operating system that serves as the development, service hosting and service management environment for the Azure Services Platform.  It is very interesting and you can read more about it here.

He also talked about Micrsoft SharePoint Online, I wasnt too sure about this part of the session, but you can check it out here.

At Las Vegas Developers Connections!

November 11, 2008

Yep it is that time of the year again, time to head to Vegas and attend the great sessions that are offered there and NOT loose any money gambling.  I am really excited about it, the first day has been ok so far, not as many SharePoint sessions as I have anticipated, and have been a bit disappointed with the SQL Server Keynote Monday night, but hopefully its going to get better as time progresses.  The biggest difference this year is that I am the only one from B&R Solutions that went to Vegas, I have my buddy Srinu who does part time work for us joining me, but the big guys that tore up Vegas last year missed out this time :).  So this is the first day of sessions I just hope it gets better because first day has been a bit below par for me so far we’ll see.  I will be blogging about the great sessions and the big ‘up-and-coming’ in the next few days as time permits.
