Aaaand... we're back.

So, as you all noticed, the site went down this weekend. It wasn't as, shall we say, planned as we'd like. But something positive came from it. We've merged SharePoint University and SharePoint Blogs! While the forum posts (unfortunately)...

BDC Mapper Web Part? How about a free way to map your data!

Nick recently blogged about a new web part available for users of his BDC Meta Man tool that allows users to use BDC data to generate a map via Virtual Earth. Cool stuff, but it's $300 if you want to buy it. Did you know that it's really quite...

Don't forget: Web Services/SOAP isn't the only path to XML from SharePoint

<reposted from May 18, 2004> A technique we used extensively in STS still applies to WSS: How to get data from your SharePoint lists in XML format. It's actually quite simple, and you don't need to use web services to get it. WSS supports...

I hate Murphy, but I love SharePoint Blogs users and bloggers!

AC is going to blow you away.
