The Office Developer Tools team snuck a new feature into the RTM version of the tools for Visual Studio 2012.  This new feature allows you to deploy apps and actually alter the search schema on the host web .  That’s right.  You can deploy...
I’ve always founds IRM quite fascinating and the nice thing about Office 365 is that it is really easy to configure and use.  There are a few steps involved, but I managed to figure them out without having to go read a heap of documentation. ...
With the combination of analytics and search in SharePoint 2013, there is a heap of new features to help determine which content is actually being used.  No longer is this information buried in reports for administrators, but it in fact is available...
If you haven’t heard, Microsoft released a new site recently that allows you to create a new Office 365 tenant that is pre-populated with users, content, and social data.  It even comes with demo scripts that you can use to walk users through the...
If you have tried to do any work with SharePoint 2013 Client Web Parts with the Office Developer Tools Preview 2 in Visual Studio 2012, you know it’s an exercise in frustration.  It literally locks up every three or four lines of code you try to...

In the past, licensing for Extranets proved to be quite confusing.  Many people including myself weren’t always sure what to recommend.  I found this useful information in the slide deck for SPC181 and I thought it was worth sharing since I...
When I first heard about an app store coming to SharePoint, I was excited.  I knew I wanted to be a part of it.  Today, I am excited to announce the release of three new apps for SharePoint 2013.  SP2 apps seek to help increase user adoption...
NOTE: This post is build with Visual Studio 2012 RC and Preview 1 of the Office Developer Tools.  See this post for an update with Preview 2 of the Office Developer Tools and the RTM version of SharePoint 2013. I am extremely interested in the new...

Maybe, this was more obvious to other people but it took me a while to figure out.  When you first provision your Office 365 Preview Enterprise account, a public site collection is created.  It took me a while to find it at first because I was...
As I start writing this post, I know this is going to be one of those posts that covers so much that it is going to hard to cover it all.  The point of this post is to give you a high level idea of everything new and changed in Search with SharePoint...
