480408 -        Windows SharePoint Services.  The major version released in
480409 -        late October 2003 is outstanding in every regard. (I had a hand

480411 -        story.), ref DRT 1 1F8N

480414 - Would help for John to list a few tasks, processes, and examples of

480417 - gagets. ref SDS 42 JT5O  A few days ago, John underscored his letter
480418 - on 020822 by observing on 040622 that technology has only a bit part

480433 -
480434 -    7.  Colabria offers deep specialization in SharePoint and has led
480435 -        major implementations.  Major train wrecks with collaborative
480436 -        technologies are commonplace.  It makes sense and saves huge
480437 -        sums of money to triangulate your deployments with trusted and
480438 -        respected, non-vendor/consultant third-parties. ref DRT 1 MF9J
480440 -  ..
480441 - John's suggestion to invest time using triangulation mechanics for
480442 - making sense determining deployment of collaborative technologies even
480443 - though he feels that tools only have a "bit part" in the future of
480444 - Knowledge Management, reported on 040622, ref SDS 55 F74Q, aligns with
480445 - Jack Park's letter on the same day that proposed "sensemaking" for
480446 - Knowledge Management. ref SDS 55 FM5W
480448 -  ..
480449 - Pythagoras developed linear triangulation mechanics many centuries
480450 - ago, reviewed on 040312. ref SDS 49 U69G  Flexibility in the rule John
480451 - presented on 040620 that folks avoid 19th century linear, mechanistic,
480452 - reductionist thinking, ref SDS 53 K47Q, seems to have given Colabria
480453 - flexibility for deep specialization using Sharepoint support for

480461 -        failing to take an architecturally-led approach to building
480462 -        Engelbart's 'capabilities infrastructure.' It is key to

480496 - Very gratifying to learn that the world's top software vendor has
480497 - produced outstanding Sharepoint technology for Knowledge Management,
480498 - as John dramatically discloses in his letter today. ref SDS 0 R25Y
480499 - Many have worried that, while Microsoft leads in selling innovations
480500 - like the DOS operating system, reported on 960612, ref SDS 11 2222,
480501 - the Windows operating system, ref SDS 11 7744, wordprocessing, and
480502 - spreadsheets, but success hampers big, bureaucratic organizations from
480503 - developing innovations, noted in an article on 910418, ref SDS 2 MW8N,
480504 - and reviewed recently on 040203, ref SDS 47 MB7K  For example, on
480505 - 970222 Larry Ellison at Oracle urged Microsoft to innovate a stronger
480506 - use for computers than information technology with 10 ways to
480507 - underline, and 8 ways to bold. ref SDS 12 3967

480510 - Later on 010510 Steve Balmer reported Microsoft hoped to produce tools

480512 - breakthrough John reports today, per above. ref SDS 0 R25Y

480517 -
480518 -            "....we sat around and talked about the fundamental
480519 -            transformations that are going on.  And it took us a while,
480520 -            frankly, to -- what should I say? -- bake it as the-- as
480521 -            the XML and dot-net revolution.  And then we had to really
480522 -            ask what does it really mean, what it doesn't mean.  We
480523 -            spent more time in that kind of weekly strategy

480527 - "Sitting around talking" sounds like authentic conversation for
480528 - Knowledge Management, shown in the study of John's correspondence
480529 - listed on 040621, ref SDS 54 ZS5M  Clearly, as early as 2001,
480530 - Microsoft was working hard to avoid unhealthy preoccupation with tools
480531 - and tangibles, urged in John's letter on 040622, ref SDS 55 F64Y,
480532 - because "just talking" is effective knowledge management, noted in
480533 - John's letter on 010114 ref SDS 30 EK3I
480535 -  ..
480536 - Seasoned thought leadership from years of conversations at seminars on
480537 - healthy knowledge ecosystems, illustrated by John's letter on 040620,
480538 - ref SDS 53 XN5M, undoubtedly aided collaboration with Microsoft on
480539 - product design, as John relates today, ref SDS 0 R25Y, of a bit part
480540 - for Sharepoint in Knowledge Management, called out in John's letter on
480541 - 040622. ref SDS 55 F74Q  Emphasis on social networking and authentic
480542 - conversations presented on 040620, ref SDS 53 MQ40, demonstrate shared
480543 - values with microsoft.
480545 -  ..
480546 - Sharepoint was reviewed on 020822. ref SDS 42 H2YS  Microsoft concurs
480547 - with John's assessment today of outstanding technology for
480548 - collaboration portals.
480550 -  ..
480551 - At that time, John said in a letter that...
480552 -
480553 -        The genius of Groove Networks is in putting social networks
480554 -        ahead of technology.  It is that simple.  Their intermodal
480555 -        collaboration and social tooling achieves the breakthrough to
480556 -        truly augment human intelligence and boost Collective IQ
480557 -        overall.  Today, nothing else comes close. ref SDS 42 Q51C

480584 -    Microsoft's SharePoint tools let users create centralized document

480596 -    SharePoint gains the ability to securely serve documents to mobile
480597 -    workers.  Groove Workspace doesn't have document management
480598 -    features, so it gains an entirely new valuable function.
480600 -     ..
480601 -    Schedule data from your SharePoint site will automatically be
480602 -    duplicated on your Groove meeting place.
480604 -     ..
480605 -    The collaboration will offer two new features: document librarian
480606 -    and an integration with InfoPath.
480608 -     ..
480609 -    InfoPath is a desktop XML form creation tool that will let users
480610 -    build robust forms that link to databases.  Groove, in turn, will
480611 -    let users carry these form libraries in their Groove Workspaces,
480612 -    fill in the forms on the go (for example, when meeting with
480613 -    clients), then have the answers automatically synchronized with a
480614 -    central database when the user returns to his or her office.
480616 -     ..
480617 -    The document librarian will add a check-in/check-out feature to
480618 -    the SharePoint Portal Server 2.0 (part of Office 2003 and a
480619 -    separate product from Windows SharePoint Services). If you've ever
480620 -    had a colleague unknowingly overwrite your changes to a document,
480621 -    you know what a boon this will be.
