Long time no post. Yes, I've been very busy indeed. Well, it’s finally time to move this blog to its new home that’s powered by Office SharePoint Server. The URL is http://sharepoint.microsoft.com/blogs/lliu . Although it’s slightly longer to type than

My colleague, Korby Parnell , recently decided to withdraw from speaking on the “Microsoft Blogs: Pioneering Corporate Transparency” panel discussion that’s been scheduled for the upcoming Business Blogging Summit conference on Oct. 25-27 in Seattle,

This video was done over a month ago, but it got held up in the queue since Scoble decided to leave Microsoft and had a ton of stuff to transition to the rest of his team. Anyway, the video is here on Channel9. One of the key issues that might not have

At the CEO Summit yesterday, Microsoft’s end-to-end search strategy was announced as “ Live Search ” (which I really like), and three new products were formally announced: Windows Live Search on the Desktop (I’m indifferent about the name): Helps you

My work on the SharePoint Community Advancement Initiative continues at a dizzing pace. Earlier this week, I helped launch the Records Management Team Blog , which is a blog about the business challenges we are all facing and the opportunities to address

A couple of other bloggers have already discovered it, but we launched the SharePoint Team Blog in stealth mode this past Monday. The first entry was posted by Kurt Delbene , Corporate VP of the Office Servers product group, and a second entry was just

I’ve been mildly amused by all the recent rantings about “Web 2.0” in the blogosphere. Many people, whose opinions I respect, don’t like the term (and Richard MacManus has a good summary) while a few, like Alex Barnett , still do. My own take on what’s

I’ve been reading the Mini-Microsoft blog for some time now, and I’ve found the comments on it to be sometimes on the mark and sometimes annoying but never very lame. Until now. It appears that someone from Google Recruiting has been trolling Mini’s blog

Since I've been getting decent traffic to my blog during the past couple of weeks (and thank you all for your interest and feedback), I wondered if I've climbed up on the Results page of the major search engines. So, I searched for "Lawrence Liu" using

Some of you might have noticed that the layout and color scheme for my blog have changed significantly over the weekend. Thanks to Ken Levy's custom CSS , my blog is now a bit easier to read, I hope. But the more important (though visually subtle) change

Alan Page's recent post struck a nerve with me. Blogging nothing but a link to someone else's blog post is almost like forwarding an e-mail that was sent to a distribution group back to the same DL . Right, it's utterly useless and a waste of the reader's

Well, it appears that I was overly optimistic about a blogolocity of just 2 hours for my original “blogolocity” post . So, based on Scoble’s guidance about getting attention , I’m purposely including his name in this blog entry. Given that “Scoble” is
