Today I published a new blog post in a blog called:  Not Otherwise Categorized..., a blog by Seth Earley of Earley & Associates.   I have been doing a lot of work in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server, so I posted MOSS 2007 Requirements Gathering: Fast and Focused to discuss the process  we've use for requirements gathering and analysis.  The post notes our reliance on Agile and Lean software development methods to accelerate MOSS development and implementation and to increase the accuracy of requirements analysis.  Of course, the key is user involvement and enough user feedback to avoid rework caused my misunderstandings.

Marwan Tarek, has provided an excellent compilation of SharePoint Performance Optimization tips in a recent blog post:

SharePoint Performance Optimizations

Guide to SharePoint Performance Optimizations

Both articles provide links to excellent resources.

SharePoint ”˜How we did it”™ articles « Footprint of IT provides of list of “how to articles” that have been posted on the SharePoint Team Blog.  Many of these articles have to do with plugging in other applications to MOSS 2007.  For example the articles list here offer advice on the blueWiki SharePoint Connector, the Confluence connector and connecting Contectbeam Spotlight.

SharePoint is a platform that is well suited to extensions with other packages, so these articles are extremely helpful.
