I think it’s done, it’s always hard to decide. Artists I welcome feedback, I’ve been at this a couple years but it’s a hobby for me and I’m always open to learn.

I had my first chance to play with the flexible section in #SharePoint. I liked the ability to overlap web parts and size parts like Call to Action.
This is an exciting change & provides room for some real creativity in the right hands!
(In Chrome, I did lose my work a few times so save often.)

I am practicing being brave and pushing myself. I committed to providing a painting for a youth group auction coming up. Giving myself this this deadline helped me build the habit again following the holidays and to share my hobby more broadly for a good cause.

Today I am creating a fresh Intranet demo site. I used Copilot to make the task faster and content better with a simple prompt and I got back good examples. This let me focus my time on configuring the sites not creating content.

Fellow ‘modern worker’, consultant and/or IT folks…
what is a book you read (or listened to for all the audiobook people like me!) that made an impact on you that you would recommend for a team to read together in a book club?

If a similar starter pack already exists please let me know but being new to Bluesky I hoping to connect with the larger SharePoint community.
I know only some people in the community here so let’s build it out further!

Ever once in a while I take photo on my phone that I’m quite proud of. I got a nice picture of a recent ornament I painted this year hanging on my Christmas tree.

This is a painting I did a while back but since it’s another migraine day I figured I’d share it. Be kind to those with chronic pain, we often look well enough on the but inside it’s another story entirely.

So it seems to be the thing now to find your people with a list of interests. Inevitably, this will be cringey later but I’ve never been above a little cringe.

When building an employee portal what is most impactful?
My thoughts:
- 90% of what is needed is a clear path to the ‘boring’ stuff - key Company News, plus HR & IT info
- if that’s done well; users may read other company highlights, engage culture programs & share their knowledge

Gentlemen of Bluesky, this is not a dating app.
Please don’t DM women unless you’re interested in a discussion on a topic they have shared and honestly even then just reply to their post.
Don’t make it weird here please!

I’m curious who is excited about the recently rolled out changes to Teams to group Chat and Channels together? There has to be a good use case but I honestly got frustrated after a couple minutes and was happy to see I could switch it back.
