Joe Homnick To Talk About Developer Opportunities In Sharepoint
Join us on Thursday, November 13th in Boca as Joe Homick shows us the Developer Opportunities in Sharepoint 2007. All
versions of SharePoint 2007 have many hooks for developers to extend
and add valuable customizations with. These opportunities include
creating customizations with SharePoint Designer, Web Parts, Web
Service API, List/Library manipulation and Content Management. Since
SharePoint Online is a managed service by Microsoft, some
customizations like Feature deployment and code behind is not
supported. However, there is still a wealth of customization
opportunities available. This session looks at what is available for
Developer customization in SharePoint Online and contrasts it with the
opportunities available with an on-premises solution. Don't miss this excellent source of what can be done with SharePoint customization
in both the online and on-premise implementations.

Pac-Man's
Mom, Mrs. Pac-Man (not to be confused with younger, more curvaceous Ms.
Pac-Man), would be proud. Pac-Man is the most recognized video game
character, according to the Davie Brown Celebrity Index, a report
intended to direct marketing departments to the right endorsers for
their products. Pac-Man scores an A, recognized by 94 percent of U.S.
consumers. Our favorite plumber, Mario, isn't far behind at 93%, a B+
or possibly an A-, depending on your school system. But both of them
get schooled by Tom Hanks, Will Smith, and Michael Jordan, who come in
at the top of the list. However, considering Pac-Man is fictional, we
think he's doing pretty good for himself.
This full-zip, black hooded sweatshirt features an all-over
print of Pac-Man. And we mean all-over. The hood is even adorned. The
cuffs and inside are blank. Has two pockets in the front. Made from 80%
cotton, 20% polyester. Note: The dots and power pellets on this print
are light blue. We don't know why, but apparently Namco thought it was
cool enough to keep it like that, cause this is an officially licensed
product. All we can say about that is, "Waku waku waku...."
Administaff Inc, the largest professional employer organization in terms of net revenue, announced last week that the number of worksite employees it served in the third quarter rose 6.1% from the third quarter last year and totalled 119,389.
