Mike Walsh's WSS and more - Sunday, October 08, 2006
 
 Monday, October 09, 2006

I'm obviously a masochist as one of my feeds is this blog.

(My claim is of course that I'm only checking to see that the feed is working)

I can see my blog in Newsgator on line, so the feed is working, but there's an oddity.

Newsgator on-line allows you to have folders, so I have a SharePoint folder and one of the individual blogs in that folder is "Mike Walsh's WSS and more". When you want to see the contents of the blogs you have listed you can either click on the folder name (here SharePoint) and you'll get a list in the right-hand column of all the blogs with new posts in that folder (grouped per blog) or you can click on the individual blog name and just get the new posts for that blog.

When I click on the individual blog name for my blog, this is what I get (first few lines only but they all look like this)

http www w3 org 1999 xhtml t guarantee that they still are p p xmlns http www w3 org 1999 xhtml This is also posted to the WSS newsgroup at microsoft public sharepoint windowsservices web access via a href http www microsoft com technet community newsgroups server sharepoint mspx http www microsoft com technet community newsgroups server sharepoint mspx a p p xmlns http www w3 org 1999 xhtml Items are added to the WSS FAQ throughout the week so you will find new items more quickly by checking at wss collutions.

If however I click on the SharePoint folder and work my way down to the items for my blog, this is what that same piece looks like

Note: All of the addresses of the KB / Articles - 2007 Products / MS / Non-MS Articles below were valid at the time I added them to the WSS FAQ site and to this file. I can't guarantee that they still are.

(This is also posted to the WSS newsgroup at microsoft.public.sharepoint.windowsservices - web access via http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/server/sharepoint.mspx)

(Items are added to the WSS FAQ throughout the week so you will find new items more quickly by checking at wss.collutions.com or www.wssfaq.com daily.)

and that perfectly formatted text is also what you see when you open the blog itself.

So why, Greg (grin), is Newsgator showing a non-formatted version when you click the item but showing a formatted version when you click the folder containing this (and other>) item(s) ? (and why do other people's blogs not seem to have this problem?)

The WSS FAQ started out as the STS FAQ in a simpler age. It was almost traditional in that it was a text collection of Questions and Answers that had been gathered both from my own experience and from other posts in the STS public newsgroups. The "Frequently Asked" part wasn't far from the complete truth as most of the questions were those that had been asked more than once in the newsgroups and which people (and of course especially me) were fed up of answering over and over again there.

In far too short a time the text was larger than could be sent in a single posting, so I had to split it up into at first two postings, then three, and then finally (before I gave up posting it as such to the newsgroup) to four. But that's really trivia; the point of this flashback is to show that the origins were a traditional FAQ created in order to avoid having the same Q+As over and over again in the newsgroup and the main source of information was the newsgroup itself along with my own testing.

As it was the newsgroups own FAQ, I could quote from newsgroup messages without any thought of this being not allowed, and in fact I still regard something that someone has written in a newsgroup as usable in a FAQ item although over time I've started mentioning names as a way of giving credit when due.

After several months of only maintaining and posting the text STS FAQ, Jim Duncan offered to create a web site for it, so from then on I added new information to the web site and also to my text file that I still posted to the newsgroup as before. After a while, we both saw that it was important that the site stayed on line so Jim persuaded Larry Strange who had a web hosting company to provide us with space there as his contribution to the "SharePoint community". Larry had already a sharepoint tips site which then was switched to pointing to the STS FAQ tips instead. [Aside: I'm not sure when this happened - i.e. whether sharepointtips and STS FAQ ran parallel for a while. I'm also not sure when I stopped posting the text version to the newsgroup - perhaps only when the WSS FAQ was started - see next para.]

When WSS was in public beta, Jim created a site for the WSS FAQ that was based on a Meeting Template and I provided content to that very early in the public beta cycle while carrying on adding information to the STS FAQ. The content at first was mostly about the differences to STS because that was being asked a lot at that time. Gradually the content changed to being only about functionality in WSS.

There was still the feeling that this was a FAQ site for the newsgroup so I was sent various articles for "publication" which were very welcome and which added to the amount of information I could provide in the FAQ through my own reading (of the newsgroup) and testing.

After a few months I saw that I was using the WSS FAQ site for my own (researching answers) use and around this time I also discovered what a nuisance it was if it was down. So I started the so-called "European mirror-site" (which isn't because although it has the same information it's based on the standard Team Site template and has no clever stuff at all).

So perhaps until May 2004 (and the STS FAQ started in Jan/Feb 2002) things were old-fashioned newsgroup FAQ + a (somewhat newer) web site version and everything was done on a free effort basis.

But then came Google ads. Jim (through living in California?) was aware of Google ads much earlier than me and asked the question on the web site whether people would have any objections to there being Google ads there. The vast majority of people who answered said they didn't mind. In fact I think I was the only person who voted against (because I was still caught up in the theory that "everything in the Internet should be free")!

So the ads came (the vast majority beating me), and of course although we were there quite early on, it didn't take long before most sites started sprouting ads.

So far, perhaps, so good. Nothing had actually changed, I was still doing the same amount of work as before adding and amending FAQ items as well as answering (=trying to) newsgroup posts, only now the web site was giving something back and helping to pay for the computer I was doing the work on.

But then came the other revolution - blogs - and now things started getting more difficult. Not immediately, because blogs for quite a while were ad-free (I remember being irritated then too by the first people who added google ads to their blogs - yet now of course I add a couple myself to almost every blog post) but once blogs had ads there was a problem for a FAQ site.

The WSS FAQ can continue to use *text* that has been written to a public newsgroup (and - after requesting and getting permission from Microsoft - text from a beta newsgroup); it can also use the results of my own investigations; but what when someone writes in the newsgroup "the answer is in my blog XXXX", that answer can't be added to the FAQ just like that.

So there are a few approaches I can and do use

a) I can ask for permission to use the text in a FAQ item.

Problems: it's much more effort and it slows down the rate in which the FAQ gets updated (which when you otherwise update it on a daily basis is a problem)

b) I can go for "acceptable use" and post the bare details of a solution and refer readers to the blog item for more details.

This works some times when the blog is long enough and detailed enough that the bare details can be extracted and yet there still remain good reasons for actually going to the blog item.

c) I can add the blog item (as a Link only) to a different part of the WSS FAQ site and not to the FAQ part.

This works too, but only as long as the link is valid - which it won't be if the writer changes blog supplier, for instance. It also means that there is no solution in the written version of the FAQ (or even in an off-line version of the FAQ such as the one it's possible to create with Colligo Reader).

The main problem is, however, with people who see a question in a newsgroup and then write a blog item and then (it seems) refer people to the blog item for the answer. There luckily aren't many of them, because what they are doing is blocking an honest FAQ maintainer from using that answer in a FAQ posting even though the answers are usually fairly simple and are *in effect* being given in a newsgroup.

 

My preference is actually to go  a combination of a and b if I think a fairly short item contains both a useful answer suitable for the FAQ style and yet contains other useful information to justify writing the blog name and address in the FAQ item. Posting items as a Link only I try to save for long items that contain useful information but don't suit the short Q+A style needed in the FAQ itself.

 

However - to go back to the subject line - sometimes I long for the easier days when the WSS FAQ was just a free contribution to the SharePoint community (just as a text [later help file] list of OS/2 products I had maintained had been for the OS/2 community in an earlier life when I posted it to Bulletin Boards) and neither a source of a small amount of revenue nor something that faced the problem of having useful information appearing only in blogs (and when I continually didn't have to watch out for going too far when using someone else's material for the good of all SharePoint users).

(This web cast is at https://msevents.microsoft.com/CUI/WebCastRegistrationConfirmation.aspx?culture=en-US&RegistrationID=1286196382)

Right from the start Andrew restricts the web cast to the Web Content Management (WCM) part of the ECM (="Enterprise Content Management") 2007 part of MOSS 2007 and makes it clear that no previous experience of either CMS 2002 or MOSS 2007 is necessary.

He also mentions that an earlier webcast in the series dealt with the differences between CMS 2002 and MOSS 2007 and therefore that won't be covered here at all.

I found the Power Point based part of the talk to be very clear and well-paced.

I found the demo part of the talk to be less clear and less well-paced. Here I had the impression that Andrew had a lot of knowledge of WCM (and MOSS 2007) and was determined to share a lot of it with the audience. This meant there was for my taste far too much information in far too short a time during the demo sesssions.

It may well be that this approach is the right one for people who have the time to watch this web cast many times but I like to see a web cast once and to be able to grasp *a few* clearly presented features and so for me there was too much information here.

(For people who are like me, I recommend the Ted Pattison web casts where he in single (shorter) web casts covers the basic functionality of a single thing at an easy pace.).

The Q+A session that's at the end (last 20? minutes of which the first 3 or so is MS propaganda you can easily miss) can be missed. Enhanced information from the Q+A will be on Andrew's Blog at http://andrewconnel.com and I spent at least some of the time shouting out the answers to questions (or rather completing the answers by providing names (such as Ted Pattison) before Andrew and a web site (www.wssfaq.com !) where a list of MOSS2007-based sites could be found and so on.)

So on a scale of 1-5 I'd give this 3 stars. It shows the richness of what is available in WCM without leaving a very clear picture about the details of that richness.

My recommendation if this talk is done again would be to have shorter demo sessions that are much more rigidly structured and scripted (to avoid the additional information which showed clearly that Andrew knew his stuff but which in an hour's presentation often just confused the main issues).

P.S. Andrew has a pleasant voice and a friendly way of giving the presentation and of answering the questions (with no edge or "I know more about this than you do"). That's always a major plus.

P.P.S I'm apparently in a minoríty of one in my opinion of the web cast. The live audience at least thought differently and gave it I'm told a rating of  7.8 / 9 which I would imagine is about as high as you can get. But then I'm a consistently low marker - I once gave such consistently low marks in a (former) company internal (but anonymous) survey that the outside company announced they had disqualified one set of answers because they were obviously a (bad) joke. In fact they were my objective scoring ! (Finns tend to middle of the road scoring (slightly on the plus side of middle) so even a minor increase year to year of say 5.5 to 5.7 is important.)

My other thought is that the live audience maybe is in a different situation to people struggling to find the time to watch a web cast off-line and this maybe makes them more generous in their marking. But most likely it's just me being tough on others again. Luckily for them I'm just as tough on myself. (Which is one reason why I don't do web casts !!)

I'd love to be able to write some book reviews of some of the Sharepoint v3 books listed here http://www.asaris.de/sites/walsh/Lists/WSSv3%20FAQ/V%20Books.aspx but just like you I'm stuck with the fact that none of these books are released yet (and that I haven't even seen any pre-release chapters).

So that will have to wait.

But one set of things that are available at the moment are webcasts (see here http://www.asaris.de/sites/walsh/Lists/Articles%20for%202007%20Products/Web%20Casts%20for%202007%20Products%20Grouped%20By%20SubCategory.aspx and extend the relevant sub-categories) so I've decided to start reviewing those here.

I'll confess that doing this is as much in my own interest as in yours. I've been adding these to the list above and usually thinking "I'll watch this later". "Later" usually hasn't come or I've given up halfway through or skipped sections so I'll avoid all these problems by commiting to reviews.

(Not of course that I'm going to commit to a schedule, but maybe just maybe I can do one a week.)

The choice of which web cast is completely up to me and they'll thus they will be in random order - no pattern of a simple webcast on x building up to a complicated web cast on x before moving on to y;

The first one is however known (because I'm already halfway through it) and it will be Andrew Connell's " SharePoint Server 2007 Web Content Management for Content Owners and Authors".

Hopefully some kind of a review of that will be posted tomorrow.

In the bad old days when Firefox was just starting and before it reached double figures there were many Microsoft (oh, what a coincidence) sites which refused to let you do anything useful on them if you were using Firefox.

Luckily that's changed. Microsoft have become more open and aware of non-Microsoft products (something which incidently it took years of poor profit figures for IBM to realise in the even further off *really bad* old days) and their sites now can be accessed with Firefox quite successfully.

(In SharePoint land - where it's still wise with the 2007 products to use IE if you are doing Admin stuff  - reports are coming in that Forefox works even better with Beta2 TR than it already did with Beta2)

What is however odd is that recently I've dicovered at least one Microsoft site where it is actually *better* to use Firefox than IE 6 (yes, even than 6).

That's the latest on-demand web casts site which is here

http://www.microsoft.com/events/webcasts/ondemand.mspx

I can access the web casts first page OK but then I need to register and IE 6 won't open the register page (I tried two different web casts). I then shot over to Firefox and accessed the same web cast and then clicked on register and Firefox gave me a passport login screen (which pre-specified a hotmail address which isn't the address I use for web casts so I amended it to one that is) and I was in the site.

I suspect (but don't know) that IE might be assuming that wrong HotMail address; saying I don't know you and instead of popping up that Passport screen is giving me a standard "can't access this page" - your Internet connections are bad ...." reply.

Certainly this has happened far too often in IE recently hence my immediate response of just going to Firefox.

In future I'll just go at once to Firefox and save myself some time.

I've had a SharePoint FAQ since early 2002 (STS) and so I'm now with WSSv3 on the third time around for writing FAQ items.

One lesson that I learnt from the WSS FAQ site is that it's a good idea to group similar questions together so this time around in the WSSv3FAQ list I've started using tags in from of questions and using .nn for different questions about the same thing (Search; My Site; etc. etc.).

One such new tag I've just started is "Admin Basics: " for things which are simple in themselves but which experience of previous releases shows that people will ask about - namely "where do I find ?"

If you look at the ones I have added so far with a cold eye you will probably say to yourself "all he's done is look at the Central Administration site and picked out a few cases from there" and of course you'd be right. [Although I'd like to think I used experience of answering questions in the newsgroups to select those few cases.]

But that's not the way to look at it. What you should be doing is looking at it from the point-of-view of someone who has a single question such as "Why can't I upload files that are larger than 50MB?". These people will do a search (or even scan the Administration section items) and get as one of their hits this "Admin Basics: What is the default maximum upload size and where do I amend it?".

Beauty is as always in the eyes of the beholder.
