Esta vez, a semana pasada, Estaba en Montreal, frecuentar o Recoméndase SharePoint Summit 2009. I gave a 3.5 hour tutorial on installing and customizing SharePoint. It was a scary subject on many levels. I’m not really a SharePoint admin, pero eu sei o suficiente para dar un tutorial sobre o tema. (Agradecidamente, Geoff Schaller de Obxectivos Software en Australia, entre algúns outros, estaba no medio da multitude para responder a algunhas das cuestións máis profundas [Non sei o que eles poñen na auga alí embaixo, pero necesitamos un pouco del aquí en EEUU]).

Pero, back to many levels of scariness… It had a lot of potential to be very boring. I actually installed WSS and then upgraded it to MOSS. In front of a room full of people. Canadian poeple. There were long 5 e 7 minute gaps where we were watching the installation process chug along. I needed to fill that time with something useful and interesting. I’m not sure I succeeded.

Finalmente, it was loooong. Three and one half hours. That’s a long presentation. I made a little joke of it, saying “We have a long presentation ahead of us. Three and one half hours. That’s 210 actas. And I don’t even know how many minutes that is in Canadian.”

Todos riron e, como resultado, Montreal is officially on my Good Places list 🙂

Mesmo se eles non tivesen riu da miña broma, I would love Montreal. I try very hard to be open minded and not take my cues from South Park, pero admito, para o meu desgusto, that I had no idea how great is the metropolis of Montreal. I can’t wait to go back in a few months, cando é un pouco máis quente, visitar de novo.

Nunha especie de nota relacionada, Eu tamén asistir a Erik Swenson do primeira presentación pública titulada "Proceso IA e Branding: Sketches para Wireframes para Hi-Fidelity Designs ". (Erik é o meu compañeiro da EMC). Check out the abstract here: http://www.sharepointsummit2009.com/conference_day2.htm. Eu ata gravei para que. I tried several times for some “action shots” and zoomed in on him when he paused to drink some water. I didn’t always succeed, but I tried 🙂
