February 27 – Omaha User Group Presentation – The SharePoint SweetSpot – Links

David Petersen — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 22:46:47 +0000

If you attended the February Omaha SharePoint User Group meeting, Thank You! We had 32 people show up for a great lunch provided by QCI and I hope you also learned something you can bring back to your organization. Thank you to Bass & Associates, Kerry Dirks and Steve Wright for providing prizes!

Some notes:

Presenters

We’re always looking for presenters. With our format of alternating between Technical content and then User-centric content, we need all sorts of presenters and all sorts of topics. For example, in April, you will learn about an Agile Project Tracking site that one of our members created. If you are interested in presenting at one of our upcoming meetings, please send an email to sharepoint@omahamtg.com, or just leave me a comment on this blog.

Links

OK – now for the links I know you all came here for: I didn’t have much in the way of slides but the links at the end of the slides are on my presentation page. I think I will also start collecting links of no-code or little-code resources for future reference! Enjoy.

Wanted: Mood Dudes and You!

David Petersen — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 23:52:56 +0000

Me and my Alter Ego!

If you were in any of my presentations in Kansas City, Indianapolis, Omaha or New Orleans and caught a flying Mood Dude, take a picture of you and your new friend and send it to Mood Dudes and I will post it up here on the site.

Let’s see how creative you can get!

Join Us In New Orleans!!!

David Petersen — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 14:59:40 +0000

I am literally heading out the door to the airport to catch a flight to New Orleans for SharePoint Saturday! I will be presenting, “What I Wish I Knew BEFORE I Implemented SharePoint”. I really enjoy this presentation and I hope that anyone attending will enjoy it as much as I do.

NewOrleansTech.net wrote a great article about it.

If you can come and join us – do! I’d love to meet you!

OK – Off to the airport!

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.
