- What’s your Social Networking IQ?January 5
-
What is the best way to judge social networking IQ? In my mind its not necessarily your knowledge of social networking from an academic perspective, nor is it your knowledge of the technical implementation and networks of social networking that are out there. However, I define social networking IQ has a person’s ability to effectively participate, benefit from and manage their social networking footprint amongst a variety of social networking networks and implementations. Whether it be technical networks like such as Facebook, Live Spaces, My Space, etc. or simply an email distribution list within your organization, an individual’s membership should be symbiotic. This means that members should give to the network like a community as well as receive. Today, most social networks are facilitated by software, so we’ll focus on those. Also, the term IQ isn’t entirely accurate as it is a measure of your social networking footprint rather than some numerical scheme that judges your worthiness in terms of your memberships. Thus, to get things started, here is my social networking footprint at work and at home:

- HOWTO: Grant users Logon as Terminal Service RightNovember 23 2008

Because I am running Windows Server Enterprise 2008 on my Laptop with Hyper-V enabled, I continuously Remote Desktop to my Virtual Machine. Even for a domain admin in the guest, you have to have group policy configured to allow the Remote Desktop Users group to allow logon through terminal services. Here is where you do it:

- HOWTO: How Document Collaboration Works at MicrosoftOctober 8 2008

While the title of this post might indicate that there is a sweeping document collaboration strategy that all teams and people use, that’s not the case necessarily. We are big at dogfooding which is a made up verb indicating that we love to try out our own software and tools in our everyday jobs just the way our customers do.
To that end, this post will describe a successful multi-national document collaboration effort surrounding the recent publication of the Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Team Foundation Server 2008 guidance that was recently published on MSDN.
The guidance for this heavily anticipated documentation will be released in phases over the next few weeks and appear in a developer center located under the SharePoint developer center.
Here is the portal link which describes the focus of the guidance as well as links/placeholders to all the content as it gets published:
Team Foundation Server Resource Center
And here is the link to the first published article:
Using Team Foundation Server to Develop Custom SharePoint Products and Technologies Applications
Based on the guidance, and the descriptions in the above resource center, we have a total of five white paper documents that were collaborated on by over 50 people in several countries, including India, Germany
