Creating applications in SharePoint

Creating applications in Windows SharePoint Services is fairly easy.  Even if you don't know how to code, SharePoint provides an easy enough framework to build business applications that are useful.

Ticket Tracking Systems
Configuration Databases
Training Systems

It is no picnic in the system administration department, but it does do a lot of things (Office Related) really well. 

DB Construction - Denver's Premier Remodeling Experts

DB Construction is finally up and running!  Wow, this was a fun website.  We did a lot of work, especially in meta to get this one done.

Working with Clients

We have been looking at so many awesome solutions.  Again, definitely overwhelming for a solo artist.  But we are coming along, we have started an account at Get Satisfaction. You can tune into our customer support discussions by visiting us @ http://getsatisfaction.com/the_dawson_office.

Working slowly to get this business online, so keep checking the site, and looking at some of the solutions we provide.  

Minutes from The Dawson Office

Putting together a business for me hasn't been easy. I am trying to follow all kinds of roads and am having trouble focusing on some main aspects. I struggled with finding a good business name, but finally came up with The Dawson Office.

I will be creating the website within the month and you can check on it at www.thedawsonoffice.com. It is going to have to be a well designed and impressive site. I plan to integrate many Flash elements into the design, as well as keep it optimized for Search Engines.

I am realizing that there is so much to a domain name when it comes to Search Engine Optimization and internet marketing. The Dawson Office is a pretty strong name. It is short enough to be easy to remember and type (as opposed to The Dawson Enterprise). I think that I can easily get it up to #1 on Google without any expensive SEO campaigns.

Anyway, I'm working hard. I am still on contract at LM and have taken on several clients. I have recently finished a Small Biz CMS at www.havana-granite.com. They are on google under keyword "havana granite" "havana-granite" . Bing still hasn't picked it up, and haven't really checked on Yahoo yet.

Next time..

PS - I love Windows 7

What an amazing OS! I was really struggling with the decision to leave Microsoft and jump on the Linux bandwagon. My web server is running Ubuntu 9.04, and I set up multiple flavors of Linux as workstations. I really like Linux, but for media, publishing and entertainment it has a long way to go. Applications such as GIMP are really great, but just don't compare to a nice Adobe CS4 Design studio on top of Windows 7.

I am running a Core i7 processor with 12gb RAM so the design studio is definitely more like a server. I have 2 RAID configurations (RAID 0 on boot, RAID 5 for Data) going on the workstation and that allows for something called Fault Tolerance. Basically, if one hard drive fails the others in the RAID would still work for me, and I wouldn't lose any data on the computer.

On the machine, at any given time, I have about 20 applications going. You can see them in the taskbar. At the time of the Screenshot I was using about 6 gb of RAM. The 8 processors are barely working (because all I am really doing is blogging).
