After 09 months from the start of the local SharePoint forum, today I got an opportunity to present. I did Part 1 of 02 parts sessions on workflow development. I wanted to fill the vacuum in the area of developing SharePoint based workflows using WF and SharePoint but I wanted to start with the basics so that everyone can get the maximum out of forum sessions and also to make sure I address all different levels in the audience.
In this first part I covered OOTB workflows, Visio workflows and SPD workflows. I also talked about the enhancements in the workflow services and discussed about the enhancements in SPD in the area of developing workflows.
There were nearly 30 attendees and I was not lucky enough to have someone to take pictures. I will be doing the part 2 of this series and please join with me to explore the capabilities in developing workflows with Visual Studio 2010, WF 3.5 and SharePoint 2010.

MUGH – Microsoft User Group Hyderabad did Office 2010 Community Launch yesterday in Microsoft Campus. This was my 1st community involvement after relocating to India and I was just an attendee.
It’s always good to be inside Microsoft Campus and we had 108 attendees inside that big MPR. We had good session lineup which covered Word, PowerPoint, Excel and SharePoint 2010. I didn’t know that people will turn-up for a full day event on a Saturday for Office launch. But this shows how well Office product is becoming most popular product around the world.
Guys, Microsoft made available Office 2010 Beta 1 last night for MSDN and TechNet Subscribers to download.
Check it out and I’m already on my way.
Microsoft started joining the club by providing FREE online storage and document sharing. They started giving couple if GBs to store our documents online so that we have access to 24×7 anywhere in the world.
Google for Applications was a another hit in the market and Microsoft has address that with the introduction of FREE Web Sites feature into the existing Office Live tool set. Now it’s called Microsoft Office Live Small Business.
