dailymoss

I have a couple projects that I am working on (too many for sure), but the one that I am most excited about will be a new site called dailymoss.com. My main goal for this site is to provide end-user training for MOSS 2007, thus the moss reference. The other reference, daily, is because I think this is the only way a regular user can learn…a small chunk each day.

This idea came together as I started working on our rollout plan for MOSS 2007. With 2003 we did some ad-hoc training at best and well, we payed for it. Although helpdesk calls are low, I think the “give up” rate is very high, and thus we are not getting the gains we could be seeing if users felt more comfortable with it.

Although I am already building some training materials and other reference documents, I probably won’t be posting them until later next month as I still haven’t figured out the best way to deliver it. In the mean time though, you will find a Google search bar that I created using their new Co-op program. I basically inputted ~175 sites from my bookmarks and other SharePoint references and this search will only search those sites, thus you will find a very clean search result set that I think works pretty well. I have the co-op search open so any one can volunteer and add urls, but I honestly can’t figure out how someone would do that yet, so if you want to post a comment for me to add one please do and I will be happy to update it in the mean time.
