SharePoint 2007: Wikis, Blogs, and Enhanced Search – EDUCAUSE2007

I heard about SharePoint last year as a way to share content among each other. I know we have a campus agreement with Microsoft right now and as far as I know, all we need to do is enable this option on our servers. I am hoping that if I know more about the abilities of SharePoint I will be better able to persuade the systems guys to enable it for me.

This class was more of a workshop so I didn’t have much time to type out stuff as we went through it. Suffice it to say that there are a LOT of options, including easy creation of Blogs and Wiki’s. This product makes it really easy to create and customize all sorts of information with click and drag, or simple select.
Microsoft is going a long way toward creating easy configurable products with many, many customizations for users. I only wish more Educators could afford products like this…
