SharePoint Saturday (JHB): My Slidedeck and Demo Source Code

What a great event it was! Great sessions! Great venue and setup! Great speakers! Thumbs up to the Chief Organizer (Veronique Palmer from Lets Collaborate) and team!

So I was a speaker at the 2012 SharePoint Saturday, for the second time (first was 2011 SP Saturday Cape Town and this time it was Johannesburg), giving a session on Stripping Search Service Application - Level 400 (Managed Properties). Thanks to the great audience, and as promised, the slidedeck is ready for download, so is the source code that I used during the demo.

Once again, lets keep the interaction going, via twitter, email and LinkedIn

Happy days!

How to Scope your SharePoint Projects
