One of my very favorite SharePoint blogs, EndUserSharePoint recently posted 5 free videos on using SharePoint Designer to create custom workflows for your SharePoint site.

Now that the SharePoint Designer software is a free download, there are no obstacles for you to create cool and wonderful workflows for your business. If you are a virtual assistant that supports clients in their SharePoint environment, just imagine how grateful they’ll be when you dive in and solve many of their business processes via the automation magic of workflows.

Go ahead. Put your cape on, you ARE a rock star!

I’m embedding the videos for your convenience here, but make sure you take an extra trip over to the EndUserSharePoint blog. You won’t be disappointed!

Happy SharePointing!

Andrea Cannavina and Andrea Kalli discussed many topics during our hour long Blog Talk Radio live show on March 13th.

What we covered:

1. How to get a handle on email overload by using the DAFT system that Andrea C. created.
2. Following up with Andrea K. about the project to convert her static HTML website to a Wordpress platform.
3. Gave a heads up about the soon-to-be-released Palm Pre mobile phone. Andrea C. has a video demo of the phone you can view from her website.

Andrea C. gives the DAFT system away when you sign up for her newsletter from Legal Typist.

Did you know that your SharePoint site automatically has a mobile version of itself? It’s just one of those great hidden features nobody seems to talk about. Not sure why…

Take care of tasks, projects, issues…all from your mobile phone and sitting at the airport (or wherever).

What’s most appealing about this feature is that you’re not having to deal with the difficulties of scrolling around the site on your tiny mobile phone screen. It’s a lightweight environment that won’t bog you down. You get in, find the info you need, you get out. Bada Boom, Bada Bing.

Branding your SharePoint site with your own logo. It’s one of the first things people do when setting up a SharePoint site. It’s really easy, even if it is rather hidden.

When you are the one managing multiple calendars, this feature is a time-saver! Can you imagine looking at 10 calendars all at once trying to determine the best place to enter an appointment? I personally know people who have to do this daily and they just rave about this feature. It gives you the “big picture” which makes it easier to know who’s available, what spots are open, etc.
