Ben There, Done That

Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the SharePoint conference this year. However, I have been trying to follow it all day via twitter and the #SPC2009 hash tag. There have been a ton of tweets and with the tweets and the amount of people a lot of duplicates. As tweets have been going out all day I’ve tried to capture new blog posts about the 2010 stack and am attempting to put together a good list of blog posts that I’ve have noticed today (and continue to notice throughout the week). Feel free to send me any blog posts I have missed or you would like me to add to my site. So, here they are:

Again, this is just a list of what I could capture while keeping an eye on twitter all day.  Feel free to email me addition blog posts or add them as a comment as I will try to continue updating this list throughout the week.

After four days at Baptist Health, the team launched the new Wolfson Children’s Hospital site today on SharePoint.  Being there for the short time I have, I didn’t have a lot to contribute to the site, nonetheless it is still very exciting for the whole team.  Feel free to head over to the site, check it out and let us know what you think!

That’s right, it is time for me to move on to a new job.  Today was my last day with EPC Group.  It has been a wonderful year and a half with them, consulting with companies I never imagined I would be working with.  I have learned and grown a lot in my SharePoint knowledge while working with them as well as made some great friends that hopefully I will continue to stay in touch with.

About 7 weeks ago I was contacted by a friend of our Pastor about a job, working locally to Jacksonville, FL performing SharePoint Design and Administration for Baptist Health.  After a couple of interviews, a job offer, and discussing it with my wife, we decided the best option for me and our family going forward was to accept the position with Baptist Health.  So, it is with excitement, that I will be starting in my new position with them on Monday.

I hope to continue this blog and updating it regularly with my experiences, tricks and tips about SharePoint.  We’ll have to see which direction this blog takes.  But with my new position being in the health care field, hopefully I can write some post about SharePoint and how it relates to and can be utilized within the Health Care Industry.
