To Secure SharePoint, Make Sure You Get User Authorization and User Management Right (SearchSecurity)
Once you've established your Microsoft SharePoint security best practices around access controls and permissions, you'll need to drill down into protecting specific groups, such as external users, figure out how you'll authorize users, and the security issues around SharePoint.
Updated Guidance for Developing SharePoint Applications (CMS Wire)
We've said it before, but let's say it again. SharePoint 2010 (news, site) looks very cool, but it is not here yet. So we need to continue to focus on improving and building our SharePoint 2007 applications. Microsoft has come to help you out. They have released an updated version of their Developing SharePoint Applications guidance. Coming from the patterns and practices group it offers examples and information on building collaborative applications that include integration with Line of Business applications.
Microsoft in 2010: What do IT Managers Need to Know? (ZDNet)
I’m presenting via Webcast on Thursday September 24 as part of Keystone Learning’s Smart IT Sessions virtual conference. My topics are both IT-specific. I’ll be providing a roadmap for a number of Microsoft’s business products and services that are expected over the next 12 months in the “Microsoft in 2010: What IT Managers Need to Know” session at noon ET. And at 2 p.m. ET, I’m going to be talking about Office 2010 and doing my best to separate the fact and fiction surrounding Microsoft’s next Office release.
Google Wave to be Launched Soon, for Some (China View)
Earlier this year, Google announced it was to launch a new product which would transform the way people communicate on the Internet. Google Wave is now set to arrive and be tested by 100,000 people who have preregistered to try out the new offering from the Internet search giant. On September 30th, the invitations will go out by email. And Google has also announced that it is opening up Google Wave to some schools and businesses that use Google Apps.
Microsoft's George Moore Talks About Windows Azure (Silverlight Developers Journal)

Why I Don't Get Netbooks (Business Week)
There are a lot of things in this world that I just don't get. In one year, a well-known company sells 40 million books and videos and publishes 94 magazines for 8 million subscribers—then files Chapter 11. I don't get it. A talented quarterback idiotically causes harm to a few dogs, serves his time, comes back to the NFL and wants to try to rehabilitate himself—and people freak out. I don't get that, either. A whiny housewife with eight kids and a cheating husband appears on the cover of People magazine more times than I can count and co-hosts The View. I definitely don't get that.
Microsoft, Best Buy Slides Slam Apple, Linux (Microsoft Watch)
So one of today's big news items (aside from Steve Jobs and iLiver taking the stage in San Francisco to roll out the latest Apple toys) revolves around the leaked Best Buy slides created by Microsoft, the ones supposedly intended to educate the box store's associates on why Windows 7-equipped machines are a better deal than devices -- particularly "netbooks" -- equipped with Linux.

Screencast: Project Planning 101 (Meet Dux)
Almost all of us have been involved in projects throughout our professional career. We know what makes or breaks a project is proper planning. In this screencast, I'd like to share a practical way of planning for your project by stepping through the fundamental elements of project planning:
Isolate & Target Your SharePoint Mobile Applications (Desklight)
Web parts are a valuable tool in web development. They provide an integrated set of controls for creating Web sites that enable end users to modify the content and behavior of Web pages directly from a browser. Some company's might decide to use a specific collection of web parts to solve a business need, such as a Help Desk. These collections of associated web parts are commonly referred to as "SharePoint Solutions" or "SharePoint Applications". It's big business for a company like Bamboo Solutions which is the Industry leading provider of SharePoint web part solutions.
The Status of the SharePoint Eco System and How We Can Help (zevenseas)
One of the things we talked a lot about when I was partnering with Skype (many years ago) was the eco system. For Skype it was important and it contained the users, partners, the core platform and extra’s. It was functioning really well and everyone profited from it (although there have been discussions about that). For any product such an eco system is important because it keeps the vibe alive.

Strongly Typed SharePoint List Collections By Template Type (SharePointSecurity.com)
When working with numerous types of lists positioned in a particular web, site, or higher storage medium, it becomes beneficial to build strongly typed SPList collections representing your data source instruments into a class level field for comfortable access and on-demand querying. Refining the approach slightly further, it is even more advantageous to extract template type selection into a paradigm that can be easily manipulated from general interface controls for filter of type if required.
Project Management Spectrum and Templates (Manage Projects on SharePoint)
This is the third in a series of five short posts on the work and project management spectrum. Much of the initiatives in organizations are delivered through projects of some shape or other. The question again is - what is the required shape?!
Develop SharePoint Presentation Materials: Part 02 (Screencast) (End User SharePoint)
In a previous screencast, I talked about creating a PowerPoint template that chunks information into groups of three, making it easier for your participants to consume the information. I am following up that screencast with this one to show a fully fleshed out slidedeck that I use for presenting Lists and Libraries information to Information Workers. Take a look and see what you think.
