Over the past few weeks while I've been covering SharePoint Saturday in New York, attempting to cover SPTechCon in San Francisco (curse you, snowmaggeddon!), and lending an editorial hand to the product launches of BambooRM and Workflow Conductor...

In response to an earlier post on creating and managing alerts , bonan brought up an interesting question in the comments: Is it possible to create alerts for Folders only? I am trying to make sure users do not create extra folders in certain lists but...

When we left off last week , I'd reached a point in my test environment that matched the case that I was attempting to address: rather than having the most recent comment on an item in a tasks list render in the Comments column as desired, I was instead...

We left off yesterday having demonstrated how to create and populate a SharePoint Tasks List , and now it's time to reveal the question that set this little mini-series of posts in motion: I am creating a big Task List for all the different marketing...

Happy new(ish) year! I received a question via email earlier this week regarding advanced task list functionality and, while setting up a test task list to work with in the course of researching the answer, it occurred to me that I've never blogged...

When I last blogged, I swear that I had the best of intentions to write this post within a day or two of that last entry, SharePoint Web Part Gallery Ruminations . That last post was now almost two weeks ago ... sigh. I can assure you that I haven't...

Yesterday I spent some time on my My Site for the first time in a little while and, thinking it might be time to get to know a new-to-me Web Part, I edited the page and clicked the Add a Web Part bar to bring up the Web Part gallery and consider my options...

A few months ago, I wrote a blog that sent up a test balloon to gauge interest in Bamboo's potentially developing Twitter/Yammer-like microblogging functionality for SharePoint. Since Bamboo was bound by a nondisclosure agreement regarding our participation...

I received a high priority email earlier today from a self-professed SharePoint Admin "noob" asking for help with a problem. The problem he was having involved the lack of a Navigation hyperlink under the Look and Feel area of Site Settings...

Before I go any further, I should apologize for my longer than intended absence from SharePoint Blank. You see, the thing is that SharePoint 2010 ate my homework. No, actually, a better and more truthful explanation would be that I was eaten by the monster...

A colleague (who's even newer to SharePoint than I am) stopped by earlier this afternoon to ask if I might be able to help her with a Document Library question. She asked if there was a way to force specific metadata to display within a Document Library...

I ended my last post, how to globally uncheck images in a SharePoint picture library , with the unsettling confirmation that once an image has been edited, it remains checked by default in the library. This default behavior introduces the possibility...

On occasion, I'm sent SharePoint questions which don't require any research on my part because I actually already know the answer. Granted, this still doesn't happen often , but it has been known to happen. At first blush, I thought the following...

By way of providing background, I'm in the process of managing a major editorial initiative for Bamboo Nation, and one aspect of that project is assigning articles to colleagues based on their area of expertise. Another aspect of the project is tracking...

A friend asked me earlier this week, "just what is SharePoint?" and I almost laughed, thinking, "well, I've written several thousand words on the topic already, but I suspect I'm going to have to write at least a few thousand more...
