----- Original Message ----- From: "" <info at wmassdotnet.org> Sent: Fri, June 19, 2009 9:20 Subject: Presentation - July 7th @ 6pm - Windows SharePoint Services 101 by Craig Pilkenton Windows SharePoint Services 101 by Craig Pilkenton The Western Mass .NET Users Group is hosting a monthly meeting on Tuesday, July 7th at 6:00 PM at the MassMutual Learning Center in Chicopee, MA. Free pizza and drinks will be provided compliments of MassMutual. Attendance is always free and open to anyone interested in learning about Microsoft .NET technologies. Directions are below. Presentation Abstract: Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 (WSS), the 'V8-Hemi' engine for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, allows any organization to quickly setup a collaboration platform for their users with no cost for WSS; just the use of an available Windows Server 2003 with a SQL 2005 database. WSS helps teams stay connected and productive by providing easy access to the people, documents, and information they need to make more informed decisions and get the job done. In this high-level presentation we'll walk through the framework of a WSS setup including security, the point-and-click interface for managing and building out sites for your users, along with how your users can learn to collaborate and share information that is readily available to all but security-trimmed as well. As time allows we'll talk about the potholes and pitfalls of running WSS/SharePoint installations and how to continually build the 'collaboration experience'.
