| 2009/10/13 SharePoint Sucks - And Here's Why
My good friend Bill Simser recently wrote about why he thinks SharePoint is great. Actually, he didn't say SharePoint is great, he's trying to explain why SharePoint does so much more than whatever people compare it to and why apples and gasoline should not be compared.

I wanted to take this opportunity to sit down, filter through the FUD that is spreading, and give my take on things....

| 2009/10/13 Automating business processes in SharePoint
Right, here is the first part of a three-part series on automating business processes in SharePoint. We will explore three different methods of doing Business Process Management, or BPM, using SharePoint and available tools.

We will use an email enabled list to receive emails and then use automated processes to route that email into the issue tracking system.

| 2009/10/13 Back to Basics: Using Folder Structures in SharePoint Libraries
This is a topic that keeps on surfacing, and I don't expect it to go away any time soon: When should we (if at all) use folder structures in SharePoint Libraries? As much as I hate to admit it, there is no simple answer. But personally, I don't often see many compelling reasons to use folders in SharePoint....
