In my Search presentation at SPC I demonstrated how to tap into Internet Explorer and Firefox’s search capability to detect open search definition files on the server. The technique is quite simple and the resulting effect very powerful. Open search defines where the browser can send a search query to the current site. It also…

It will be a short format as we only have an hour. Now all I…

The teams receive a challenge and then have all night to design, develop and present a solution using what they learned. My presentation on SharePoint Master Pages and…

Advanced Search Configuration and Management Organizations intending to implement a search solution in SharePoint often approach this "technical problem" by asking "What do we need to index?". While this approach may yield results they…
