Office 2010 Home And Stude/nt Network World articl

There is a good article about SharePoint on Network World. Here are some of the more interesting quotes: "Microsoft's SharePoint Server is on a billion dollar juggernaut to potentially become the next must-have technology, offering companies tools for building everything from collaborative applications to Internet sites..." "Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 is the fastest growing product in the company's history and seems to have as many uses as a Swiss Army knife. Its six focus areas are collaboration, portal,Office 2010 Activation Key, search, enterprise content management (ECM), business process management and business intelligence." "In 2008, SharePoint has evolved into the prototypical Microsoft tool – good enough for small-to-midsize businesses,Windows 7 Professional, adaptable to large enterprises,Office Standard 2007, and,Office 2010 Home And Stude/nt, most important, plenty of financial opportunities for third-party independent software vendors and systems integrators." The article goes on to talk about the exploding growth, some of the current SharePoint weaknesses, and the looming battle with IBM. Interesting stuff... From a personal perspective it has been rewarding to watch SharePoint grow up as a product. I can remember back in early 2002 when a small group of us invented the Web Part framework and the list web service APIs thus molding SharePoint into a developer platform. Interestingly,Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise, many of the key contributors of the first version of web parts went back to work on Access 2007 and are now working on Access vnext. <div
