| SSWUpdate - Does your SharePoint site have favicon? |
[ the cutting edge ]G'Day Developers! A Favicon is a small image file included on nearly all professional developed SharePoint sites. The Favicon reflects the look and feel of the SharePoint site or the organizations logo.
Internet Explorer ("IE") 5.0 and above has a function that, if someone bookmarks the page, it will look for favicon.ico from the directory of the web page, if not found it will look for it from the root directory of the SharePoint site. Otherwise it will use the default Icon. To implement the favicon:
Note: If you put the icon with the default file name of favicon.ico in the root directory of your domain, you don't need to add the following code. Because each time your Web page is added to a user's favorites, Internet Explorer automatically searches for this file from the root directory and places the icon next to all the favorites and quick links originating from your site.

Something About Mary (SharePoint and Office 2010) by Adam Cogan

First you will get an overview of what is great about having SharePoint in your business.
Then see real world examples of:
- Using SharePoint 2010 and Office 2010 together
- Where it fits with other important Microsoft products like CRM 4 and TFS
- Examples of how Word and Excel can be integrated into business processes (separate from SharePoint), and then followed by

- Overview of how data can be synchronized between the two (eg using Access and Excel)
- Overview of what 'workflow' (really!) means
- How Office can be incorporated into company workflows with SharePoint
- Extending SharePoint with Office SharePoint Designer 2010 (free!)
- Where VBA and VSTO fit in terms of how solutions can be developed

The session will be informal so there's plenty of opportunities for asking questions. This is a good chance for you to consider new ways of using Office in your company, along with pitfalls to avoid. Adam gets excited about this session because too often companies limit Office to just an email application, word processor and spreadsheet - completely missing the positive impact it can have on the entire business process.
