The Best Place for SharePoint-related Blogs

For The User

A blog for SharePoint users. If you are a SharePoint administrator or developer, feel free to read on but be warned I'll be covering stuff that may seem pretty basic to you. It's been my experience that getting started with and getting the most out of SharePoint as an end user isn't always an intuitive process. My goal is to provide information and content in the hopes of smoothing your path to becoming a master SharePoint user.

Sharing Links: Adding User Help to Web Parts

I highly recommend taking a look at this post from the Joining Dots blog on how to add custom end user help information to web parts.  Extending your SharePoint environment with instructive content like this can go a long way towards improving your users experiences and increasing participation.

Embarrassed EDIT: My bad, I had a copy/paste error in the original post.  Thank you Joe for helping me get this fixed.
