I had the pleasure of meeting Ira Fuchs for the first time at SharePoint Fest Dallas a few weeks ago. Ira is a SharePoint Technical Specialist at Microsoft, so I’m guessing he has access to some of the brightest SharePoint minds in the world. As Ira and I were talking, he saw fit to gift…
On March 16 I was privileged to be able to speak at SharePoint Fest Dallas . I truly enjoy going to these conferences and being able to talk to people who are at many different stages of their SharePoint Journeys. Whether someone is at the conference to find out what SharePoint even is or is…
Oddly, I’ve had some people asking me where I’ll be speaking in the coming weeks and months, so I figured I’d do a post with the details. First up is SharePoint conference .ORG coming up March 7-9 in Baltimore, MD. I’ll be doing a session entitled Enhancing the User Experience with jQuery. While the title…
Thanks to everyone who attended my session at SharePoint Saturday EMEA yesterday. If you’re interested in looking under the covers of the demo that I did on Developing in SharePoint’s Middle Tier, there is a Site Template (MiddleTier.WSP) available on my Sympraxis Consulting demo site in the upper right which you can download and instantiate…
I’ll be doing a session at Live Online SharePoint Saturday EMEA on January 22nd, 2011 entitled Developing in SharePoint’s Middle Tier. (I know I’m going to get some guff about continuing to use the ‘Middle Tier’ moniker; I’m OK with that.) While most of the market focus in SharePoint development lies with .NET skills and…

I enjoyed the conversation during the session (I like discussing more than presenting) and one of the things I said that I would do is make the demo site…
Every once in a while, I write a fairly long response to a question in one of my USPJ Academy courses that just feels like a blog post. Here’s another one of those. We’ve been discussing why you would choose to use DOM manipulation over custom .NET programming. Here’s one of my replies in the…
One of the great things about being on the faculty at the USPJ Academy is getting to engage in the type of discussions that I recall as being so rewarding in my academic career. There’s no immediate business crisis at hand, just a bunch of motivated, interested people kicking around ideas to see what makes…
It’s always interesting to me what people decide to write to me about directly versus in forums or as comments here on my blog. Here’s one that I think is definitely of general interest that I got today. I’ve edited a little and scrubbed a few things out of it, as it’s clear that the…
I was looking through the incoming links here on my blog tonight, and I noticed this one: Middle Tier (un método alternativo para desarrollar en SharePoint). Well, that was interesting enough to click on, for sure! What it led me to was a Spanish post which is basically a brief paraphrasing of The Middle Tier…
