   Hi Mark,

   Just a quick thank you for the great work done up until now, it makes a huge difference to many of us. I look forward to delving into the new content you come up with.

   Kind regards,

   I think we can go to the independent http://www.SharePointReviews.com web site for information about third-party tools.

   Hi, Mark,
   Your site has opened my eyes to the many possibilites of customizing my SharePoint sites. I’m not a code writer. But I can understand much of what is going on in the fantastic capabilites your site demonstrates.

   There are some out of the box things I’d like to see explained and explored I don’t find anywhere, including Microsoft.

   I would like some examples on how to use the “Calculated Value” at the bottom of most field types where you go to set up a field. It must be usefull for something – I think.

   One of the things I really value about EndUserSharePoint.com is the amount of information for out of the box solutions that need just a bit of tweaking. There is a ton of SharePoint information out there for people coding from the ground up, but not too much that the end user can use.

   Preston – I’d like to have Mike Ferrera do some articles on here along that line, and refer back to SharePoint Reviews as the main source. We’ll see what comes of it. — Mark

   This is a “more than expectations” site with tonnes of information for both end users and administrators. Mark, how about a Shanghai Chapter of this site? http://www.endusersharepoint.com.cn ? I’d be more than glad to work with you on this and help the site reach the growing MOSS userbase in China.

   Hi Mark…..This is a great site providing many out of the box solutions as well as end-user customizations that don’t involve hard-core IT resources.

   jquery, charting and more workflow examples and content simply increases the overall value of the site.

   One thing I am watching to see what develops is the proliferation of SharePoint 2010 specific content….even though it won’t be out till mid-next year.

   We just got our SharePoint 2007 infrastructure up and running a short time ago and really don’t have the money to invest another $100k in CAL’s to upgrade to 2010.

   I think there are a lot of companies in the same boat as us and I am sure there are tons that have been running 2007 for a while and have many custom solutions in place and are also not looking to move to 2010 in today’s economic times.

   My fear is that content and focus will shift from 2007 to 2010 making this site (and other sites as well) less valuable to those that are on the 2007 platform.

   Perhaps there is a need to segregate content into content that is specific to 2007 only, content that is related and works for both 2007 & 2010 and content that is only specific to 2010….or something similar.

   I agree with segregating 2010 information from 2007. My interest is in seeing what others are doing on their internal portals. For instance, I know that Sharepoint is being strongly embraced by the healthcare field, and that many of us developing content are not IT people. I’d like to hear from the non-IT groups about what they are doing and how they are improving processes with Sharepoint.
