Migrating to SharePoint 2010? Read these answers to hard questions
The first decision you need to make before you embark on your transition to SharePoint 2010 is whether you will upgrade, or migrate. In the context of this powerful, 14-page technical paper, “upgrade” is defined bringing your entire farm, bits and content, to a new version of SharePoint. By contrast, “migrate” means taking just the content to a new version of SharePoint.
The out of the box tools to upgrade or migrate to SharePoint 2010 are pretty impressive, and represent one of the best, most forgiving upgrade experiences I’ve seen in a product the size of SharePoint. Unfortunately, to take advantage of these tools you must meet a few exacting requirements. Some of these requirements force a SharePoint administrator’s hand to do a migration instead of an upgrade, even if they would prefer to upgrade.
If you’re in this situation, and want to learn more, grab this technical paper by SharePoint expert Todd Klindt (one of the top instructors at SPTechCon). It won’t be available long, so get this paper today!

SHAREPOINT SOCIAL: Why? BY Dan Holme
Lately you might have been hearing about “SharePoint Social,” the social features of SharePoint—and you might be wondering how to plan, implement and support, and develop on top of SharePoint’s rich social capabilities. First, though, you and your management might want an answer to the burning question: “Why use SharePoint's social features?”
Out in the community, my clients and the people I meet ask this question in different ways—for example, “How can I explain SharePoint’s social features to my boss?” or “Management is scared of Facebook and Twitter already…what’s the value of social networking?” As I see it, social networking in SharePoint Server 2010 serves the following functions, each of which varies in importance depending on the scenario and the organization.

Optimizing SharePoint for Global Access
Craft a plan for a complex local or global SharePoint 2010 ecosystem that will meet your
organization's short- and long-term goals and, ultimately, be both manageable and governable.
Not surprisingly, when organizations tackle global implementations of the SharePoint 2010 platform rather than
small, single-location installations, a host of new challenges arise. In this Technical Advisor, Colin Spence covers
a number of critical challenges that arise in hardware design, architecture, and configuration--as well as best practices
used in global deployments today.
Hardware design concepts are addressed first, then logical software design fundamentals and challenges. After that,
tools that many large organizations adopt to create "communities" of employees, and the challenge of governing the
end product.
SharePoint 2010 is a very powerful platform and toolset, but even its vast array of tools fall short in some areas and
organizations find that they need to develop their own or purchase third-party solutions. A number of these areas are
covered throughout this Technical Advisor.
