Comments for The Practical SharePoint Information Architect http://spinsiders.com/ruveng Mon, 08 Apr 2013 14:57:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Comment on About by Ruven Gotz http://spinsiders.com/ruveng/about/#comment-122 Ruven Gotz Mon, 08 Apr 2013 14:57:50 +0000 http://blogs.ibts.ca/ruveng/about/#comment-122 Hi Berney,

This is definitely a tricky problem. I don’t have any links to address this: Unfortunately there is no ‘right and wrong’ for this situation, just ‘better and worse’ depending on many factors. If you are stuck with this architecture, you may want to consider ensuring that there are links between the various site collections so that the users can find information held in other SC’s. You may also want to consider creating search scopes that search all the sites of a particular type across multiple site collections.

Maybe others reading this blog will have some better ideas for you.

Sharing knowledge. As tough as it is, your friend should be proud of what she’s accomplished, IP that not only did her clients find useful but also her peers.

Tell your friend to continue being the leader that she is and to continue innovating.

I have to agree with you that the ultimate goal should be the continued education, but I can also see the point that it would be disheartening to others to have their stuff stolen like that. I am of the opinion that if they want my stuff, that’s great. It must be good. :) I often pass out mindmaps to others, and always post/offer my powerpoints as well. I am glad that you always post yours as I don’t always get to see you speak, but at least I can continue learning some by reviewing your items on Slideshare.

But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.” (George Bernard Shaw)

Share to be shared!
