How to Make a SharePoint Site Intuitive: The Science of Easy to Use
by Marcy Kellar
You don’t have to be a designer to make a SharePoint site easy-to-use. There is a science behind ensuring a user thinks less about how to use a site and more time focusing on what is on the site. These techniques and principles are standard in the regular web design world and can be applied to SharePoint too.
This session breaks down the science of “easy-to-use” and demonstrate techniques to communicate requirements and what it takes to make your SharePoint site more intuitive to users. It is intended for the non-designer tasked with implementing an easy-to-use and widely adopted SharePoint site and covers:
- How to articulate and define “easy-to-use” (and how to measure it)
- Why your users do what they do
- Fundamentals and best practices in usability
- How to take advantage of current web conventions and patterns
- The relationship between “easy-to-use”, psychology and user adoption

“It Takes a Village”: The Human Cost of SharePoint
by David Berry
SharePoint is a broad platform offering many different capabilities. It is frequently a challenge for clients or even our own management to understand the roles involved in designing and implementing a proper solution, assessing the impact on IT teams to maintain it and most importantly helping the users adjust and accept the new tool in their lives.
In this talk we’ll break down the SharePoint Superman into manageable roles that can be filled by one or more people, including what is a SharePoint architect. We’ll assess the maintenance impact to IT teams, including the division of the SharePoint farm administration roles. Most importantly we’ll look at how the implementation of SharePoint 2010 can impact the organization and its users.

Public Facing Web Sites Using SharePoint: An Advanced Introduction
by Paul Galvin
In New York, something like 70 percent or more organizations use SharePoint for some kind of intranet related business purpose. However, far fewer use SharePoint for public facing web sites and fewer still use SharePoint for that famous in-between state - the "extranet'. That's a shame. During this session, you'll learn about some of SharePoint's lesser know but still quite powerful features that support these scenarios, including: - Strong branding for internet sites
- Security for non-employee access (for your trading partners)
- Content management capabilities
- Things to avoid when going down this path
- A survey of some well-known organizations that use SharePoint for these purposes
- A look at some of SharePoint's competitors in this space
You should leave this session with a greater appreciation of SharePoint's ability to support non-employee use and a clear idea of what it would take to get there.

SharePoint 2010 Feature and Solution Development With Visual Studio 2010
Visual Studio 2010, when installed in the same environment as SharePoint 2010, provides a broad set of project type templates for creating SharePoint assets (sites, site elements, etc.), more so than SharePoint 2007. Upon creation of a SharePoint Project, Visual Studio 2010 automatically creates the necessary Feature and Package nodes, facilitating the creation of a SharePoint Feature and Solution Package. Today's discussion (and walkthrough) will show a few different scenarios of creating a SharePoint 2010 Project containing some site elements, and how Visual Studio 2010 has made Feature and Package creation a much simpler process.
Three Lessons Learned from Attending this Session:
New/enhancements in VS2010, new project types for VS2010/SP2010, simplistic deployment of customized assets for a SP2010 application -

Using SPMetal for faster SharePoint development
This session will cover the ins and outs of SPMetal, a tool which ships with SharePoint 2010. SPMetal allows developers compile-time access to SharePoint lists and content types. This allows for type-safe access to columns/fields on a SharePoint site. Additionally, developers can write LINQ queries against these lists using SPMetal which speeds up query writing tremendously for developers. We will additionally cover adding support for complex column types (Managed Metadata, Publishing HTML, etc) which aren’t support by SPMetal out of the box. Lastly we will also touch upon performance considerations and other best practices when coding with SPMetal.
