Every once in a while, I’m sort of OK with blowing my own horn. One year into the life of my jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services, now usually known as SPServices, I’m feeling pretty good about it. I first started writing the bits and pieces back in July, 2009 after reading a great blog…
I’m looking forward to the inaugural meeting of the Boston Area SharePoint Users Group (BASPUG) tonight! If you’re in the Boston area, register, and come and join us at the Microsoft New England Research & Development (NERD) Center in Cambridge. With a name like NERD, I have to go just to see it. The speaker will be…
In a previous post entitled The jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services and SharePoint 2010, I talked about the fact that the jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services (SPServices) basically works with SharePoint 2010. I also promised to pursue “certification” for SharePoint 2010 on a function by function basis so that users of the library could be sure…
For months now when people have asked me about whether the jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services will work with SharePoint 2010, I’ve been pretty much dodging the question. I didn’t want to spend the time testing with beta software (my alphas and betas are always open to changes) and I didn’t want to mislead…
I’ve been tweeting and crowing about how awesome my new HP Envy 15 laptop is. There are some good photos of the laptop and its packaging over at notebooks.com (this photo is borrowed from the site). Quite a few people have asked what I put in it, so I thought I’d post the specs here. …
Where to begin? I can’t believe that I haven’t gone to any SharePoint conferences before. It was a tremendous experience on many levels. First and foremost, I was able to meet many of the SharePoint folks I’ve been tweeting with and following on the Interwebs over the last few years. It’s one thing to think you know someone…
I decided it was high time to take a look at how my jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services might hold up in SharePoint 2010. After all, it’s a whole new product, everything’s new and improved, etc. Except it turns out that many things are exactly the same. This is actually not bad news. For…
The other day, I tweeted “Am I the only one who thinks that spending a lot of time on #SP2010 right now is premature?” and subsequently wrote my Too Soon for SharePoint 2010? post. I certainly didn’t want to cause trouble with the question, but it’s garnered some interesting responses. Bjørn Furuknap posted his thoughts on his blog today,…
I tweeted this last night: “Am I the only one who thinks that spending a lot of time on #SP2010 right now is premature?” and I’ve gotten quite a few interesting responses. I figured I’d start a blog post on this and add in the replies as I get them (see the bottom of this…
This is already all over the blogosphere, but I thought I’d RB (re-blog, like RT, right?) it. The official public information about SharePoint 2010 is starting to trickle out over at the Microsoft SharePoint 2010 site. The videos are worth a watch!
