Back on January 2, 2008 I blogged about how this would be a good year. Shane Young had been trying to get me to join SharePoint911 since the summer of 2007. In early January I finally made it official and joined SP911. It has been a little over 5 months now and things just keep getting better.
Let me back up for just a quick second - for those of you who never ran across my blog previously let me introduce myself. My name is John Ross and I'm a SharePoint consultant for SharePoint911 living in Orlando, FL. I got my start in SharePoint working on the developer side of a large WCM project -- making lots of Features and solutions. Apparently, when you hang out with Shane long enough you start picking up the Admin side of SharePoint too. So, I've also done many installs, migrations, and general fixing of things when SharePoint isn't happy.
In addition to consulting, I'm also working on a book with fellow SP911er Nicola Young. And just to ensure that I have NO free time left, I'm also working with Joel Oleson and Nicola on writing a SharePoint Planning and Governance course for the Ted Pattison Group. Both projects are going to super awesome. More details to come on each of those topics.
I couldn't ask for a better group of people to work with! Keep an eye on this space cause there will be more coming soon. I've been holding back on posting until the move happened.
