SharePoint Saturday – Indianapolis Wrap-Up

David Petersen — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 22:30:52 +0000

SharePoint Saturday was a huge success. I had a lot of fun. To all of the organizers – this was truly one of the best organized conferences I have attended. The speaker dinner was a blast and the venue was perfect for the creativity that SharePoint encourages! Thank you! If you ever do another one, I hope I am fortunate to present again.

For all who attended my presentation – I Wish I Knew That (What I Wish I Knew Before I Implemented SharePoint), you can download my slide deck by going to my Presentation Notes page. If you were one of the lucky few to capture a Happy Mood Dude, take a picture of yourself with it and send it to me. I’d love to post it on the site.

SharePoint Saturday – Indianapolis

David Petersen — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 13:55:00 +0000

Up and ready for a great SPS-Indy. The building is a great location for a SharePoint Conference. My session is scheduled for 2pm so I’ll get to attend some other great sessions. Here are some pictures I have taken of the venue. Look for more later!

SharePoint Saturday – Ozarks

David Petersen — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 23:25:13 +0000

I just saw that they are having SharePoint Saturday – Ozarks again this summer. SPSOzarks was my first SharePoint Saturday experience and I really enjoyed it. The information I learned, and the relationships that I began that Saturday were the impetus for getting more involved in the SharePoint community. Since that Saturday in Harrison, Arkansas, I have attended Microsoft’s SharePoint Conference 2009 in Las Vegas, gotten more involved in our local SharePoint User Group and started presenting at other SharePoint Saturdays. I hope to work up another presentation for SPSOzarks so I can be a presenter this time instead of a spectator.

SharePoint Saturday – Indianapolis / New Orleans

David Petersen — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:39:09 +0000

I have been confirmed to present at SharePoint Saturday – Indianapolis on January 30, 2010 and SharePoint Saturday – New Orleans on Febuary 27, 2010. I’ve never been to Indianapolis or New Orleans, so I’m looking forward to it. I will presenting the same presentation I did at SharePoint Saturday – Kansas City – What I Wish I Knew Before I Implemented SharePoint. Watch out for flying mood dudes!

Omaha SharePoint User Group

David Petersen — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 17:27:10 +0000

I presented at the Omaha SharePoint User Group last night (12/16/2009). Good meeting and a great discussion. I did the same presentation that I did at SharePoint Saturday – Kansas City. One thing I did find out was that my tag that has my contact information was password protected. Talk about a downer. Here’s a cool little application that allows mobile phone users to capture information using their phone camera and then my tag doesn’t work. Oh well. Not everything can go perfectly. I have updated my tag settings and updated the tag on this website in case someone wants to try it again. Let me know if you use the TAG and what your results were.

For more information about the Omaha SharePoint User Group or other Microsoft user groups in Omaha, go to the Omaha Microsoft Technology Group website.

SharePoint Saturday – Kansas City

David Petersen — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 18:53:15 +0000

I presented “What I Wish I Knew Before I Implemented SharePoint” at SharePoint Saturday in Kansas City on 12/12/2009. This is a 100-level presentation that is meant to be a general overview of the process of implementing SharePoint.

I enjoyed my time there and for those in my session, you can download the slide-deck here.

Also, for reference, here are a list of links that I referenced during the session.

You can also get my contact information from my tag.

******** UPDATE ***********

I was informed that my tag was password protected. Lo-and-behold, it was and so I created a new tag. This one should not be password protected.
