A whole week has gone by without a blog entry from me. (Tsk, Tsk as Chris Sells would say, although not about this.) I have a bunch of items in my “add to blog file“, but no time to compose a post around them. I'm heads down in a couple of...

Found a new blog that SharePoint Portal users will want to check out. The CMS Connector for SharePoint is now available. Why is this needed? This is an important piece in the combined Microsoft Portal story that allows the strength of MS Content...

When I have time I sometimes cruise my referrals for this blog. This morning when I looked (as I'm waiting for my son to finish getting ready for school), one of the more recent referrals was a search for pics+of+chris+anderson. Strange, I thought, I...
