Book Reviews of Essential SharePoint 2007
Book Review: A SharePoint book for the end user, and their managers.
Summary: 4 Stars
Unlike most SP books out there at the moment, isn't all about how to install, set-up, administer, and write custom code for a SP deployment. It's much more aimed at end users, and people who need to plan a collaboration strategy around a shared knowledge base.
While a lot of it is management-theoretical in the first few chapters, it's sensible advice that gets one to think about things that are necessary to address, but wouldn't automatically have come to mind. The central message of "the 4 Cs" communication, collaboration, consolidation, and consistency help one to both recognize what's good, and also how to get there.
I think that chapters 1-3 are required reading for anyone in a human management role who will be involved with rolling out SharePoint as a collaboration tool.
Chapters 4-7 are more aimed at admins, so I skipped them.
Chapter 8 is great for individual site planning with "how to" and, more importantly "why to" and "when not to" advice on blogs, wikis, team sites, and their coherent integration.
The fastest payback for a reader comes in Appendix A which documents 24 things that a SP user needs to know how to do, from adding a files to a document library, to targeting information visibility by audience type.
