Welcome!

Welcome, one and all to the WSS Pit. I am currently working at FedEx Office (FedEx Kinko's is now FedEx Office). I am the Senior Engineer for The FedEx One Portal - our intranet solution which is using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007, which is a subset of Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) 3.0.

My main focus is developing business applications using WSS 3.0 using the Browser interface, SharePoint Designer, InfoPath and Visual Studio 2008. We try to keep most applications using the Out-Of-The-Box (OOB) features of MOSS 2007, which really cuts down on support costs later on down the road. We teach our Business Partners how to use MOSS to their advantage as much as possible - Teach them how to Fish and they will not come to your for more fish...

This blog is something that I will be updating (hopefully regularly) so that I can spread my knowledge far and wide (and remember it later too). There are a million little things to remember about MOSS 2007, and if I haven't gotten them written down somewhere, I end up solving the same problem multiple times. Well, here's where I will write them down, and you can share them with me!
