The Transformation of EndUserSharePoint.com Begins
This is the first of a series of articles documenting the process of moving content from a WordPress blog, a bbPress PHP forum, and a SharePoint 2007 MOSS site into SharePoint 2010.
On May 13th I wrote an article describing the growing pains EndUserSharePoint.com is having. We’re closing in on 1600 articles and 11,000 comments, making it nearly impossible to find anything on the site. Not only that, it’s hard to find specific areas of content based upon user level. My answer: let’s move to SharePoint 2010 to see what it can REALLY do for an End User.
I look at 2010 as another platform for displaying information, making that information more findable and learning a bit along the way on how it works. I’ve started by laying out the infrastructure of the new site, including locations for existing content, along with placeholders for new content.
I started creating the placeholder sites yesterday and will document the pitfalls as they come up. Stay tuned…

Way to go Mark! Using the platform we write about, talk about and develop for is such a big step.
Mark,
Great idea…..That will add 5 stars to the EUSP site…..Keep going!!!!
Speaking of which, I’m trying to implement a community 5 star rating system against all articles on EUSP and all questions/answers on Stump the Panel. — Mark
Hmm, 5 stars huh? Can I get 6. I’m all about turning it up to the max.
Looking foward to seeing this all come together. Let me know if you need help.
Well that would mean an 11 wouldn’t it?
