  • #1 Session at the SharePoint Conference 2008 - Analysts Vs SharePoint Folk

     

    The conference isn't even over yet and I can already vote for my favourite session of the week.

    To save me the effort of re-writing the session, I've just spotted that Sharon Richardson from Joining The Dots has already posted her blog about the afternoons events.

    I highly recommend that you read this. Click here for more info.

     

    So what exactly is a mash-up? You've got to worry when even the analysts can't agree.
