421902 -
421903 - John Maloney submitted information on weblogs and Groove that solve
421904 - limitations of Lotus Notes that impede productivity. ref SDS 0 Q99G
421905 - Ray Ozzie says Groove helps assemble teams, manage documents and make
421906 - decisions. ref SDS 0 MY3I He feels weblogs and Groove with Lotus
421907 - Notes, ref SDS 0 UQ0R, improve email, ref SDS 0 HW8H, which a lot of
421908 - people use for collaboration. ref SDS 0 WO8H Groove claims to be 10
421909 - times better than email by synchronizing information, like LN uses
421910 - replication. ref SDS 0 H1WX Calculating ROI for Groove on didn't
421911 - work. It has has good criteria; does not consider expanding span of
421912 - attention, enabled by SDS. ref SDS 0 H16N Sharepoint mentioned in
421913 - literature on Groove seems to support features planned for OHS/DKR,
421914 - like crawling content and creating an index of metadata. ref SDS 0
421915 - H357 A Digital Dashboard is part of Sharepoint that integrates work
421916 - processes to assemble information. ref SDS 0 H34F John Maloney sent
421917 - another letter saying his proven template lists IT gadgets, correcting
421918 - an earlier letter using the template to assess SDS. He calls evidence
421919 - to enable analysis of sweeping conclusions "an academic exercise,"
421920 - narrowing the scope of "collaboration" promoted today. ref SDS 0 BC5L
421921 - Despite lack of analysis supporting Groove, John recognizes analysis
421922 - is important for understanding; he cautions against sweeping
421923 - conclusions without analysis. ref SDS 0 IO7G John offers sweeping
421924 - critique of organizational memory properly arguing against writing
421925 - everything down, that supports experience using SDS for capturing
421926 - important information to save time and money. ref SDS 0 Q45G John
421927 - likes Groove support for intermodal collaboration putting people
421928 - first, ref SDS 0 Q51C, because intimate social interaction, deep trust
421929 - and unfettered interactions are effective. ref SDS 0 E49H John offers
421930 - a sweeping endorsement of Groove for accomplishing the vision of the
421931 - OHS/DKR knowledge repository calling for links to daily working
421932 - information. ref SDS 0 Q52F Lack of analysis supporting conclusions
421933 - indicates John has not adopted Groove, and that the tools he is using
421934 - do not make analysis fast and easy; or, John is using Groove and it
421935 - has no recognizable impact on improving the work, contrary to hopes
421936 - and endorsement. ref SDS 0 Q53A

422314 - Initially, I confused "Groove" in John's letter today, with "Grove"

422703 - Grove is an invention of the SGML community as a way to provide a
422704 - uniform API into a heterogeneous information space, rendering all

422720 - of knowledge, which is aided by addressability. ref SDS 40 O43M
422722 - ..
422723 - Doug Engelbart called for addressability in email on 000405,
422724 - ref SDS 36 2484, but new evidence on 020820 shows powerful social
422725 - barriers resist using addressability for accurate communication,
422726 - ref SDS 72 V66I, to enable good management. ref DIT 2 0O6G

430459 -
430460 - Notes ...is a... platform for developing forms-based document
430461 - sharing applications, and it has provided tremendous value for
430462 - those who made investments in it: typically corporate IT for email
430463 - infrastructure, and the line-of-business for applications. But

430466 - investments - training investments, application development
430467 - investments, infrastructure investments - on their way into

430469 - different dimensions:
430471 - ..

BT0479 - SharePoint Portal Server uses several key Microsoft
BT0480 - technologies, including Windows, digital dashboards, Office,
BT0481 - Microsoft Internet Explorer, the Microsoft Exchange Store, and
BT0482 - Microsoft Search Service. When used in conjunction with Office
BT0483 - XP, SharePoint Portal Server's enterprise-wide search, document

BT0488 - Use Case Scenarios SharePoint
BT0489 -
BT0490 - The client components of SharePoint Portal Server consist of
BT0491 - functional extensions to Office and Windows Explorer, which
BT0492 - enable document management functions within those applications.
BT0493 - For example, after you modify a Microsoft Word document that
BT0494 - you checked out from a SharePoint Portal Server workspace, in
BT0495 - Word, you can go to the File menu and click the Check In
BT0496 - command. Alternatively, you can use Windows Explorer to view
BT0497 - and perform document management operations on files from a
BT0498 - SharePoint Portal Server workspace. The rich search
BT0499 - capabilities of SharePoint Portal Server are also available
BT0500 - from Office XP when you browse to the workspace on which you
BT0501 - want to search Web folders. These Office and Windows Explorer
BT0502 - client components communicate with the server components using
BT0503 - standard Internet Protocols.

BT0512 -
BT0513 - This configuration supports a group that primarily needs to
BT0514 - manage documents but also crawls some content stored outside
BT0515 - the workspace. A department uses SharePoint Portal Server
BT0516 - for document creation, version control, and publishing
BT0517 - documents in the group. In this example, the workspace
BT0518 - consists almost entirely of content that is stored in the
BT0519 - workspace. The amount of content stored outside the
BT0520 - workspace is small and might consist of content sources
BT0521 - pointing to one or two competitors' Web sites. The emphasis
BT0522 - is on document management rather than searching.
BT0524 - ..
BT0525 - Search Services
BT0527 - ..
BT0528 - SharePoint Portal Server uses the Microsoft Search Service,
BT0529 - which has four main components. These components:
BT0530 -
BT0531 - • Crawl the collected content of a set of URLs for
BT0532 - inclusion in an index.
BT0533 -
BT0534 - • Parse or filter the document to extract the relevant
BT0535 - metadata and content.

BZ0847 - of products and methods he used as standards for evaluating

BZ0850 - ..
BZ0851 - Reluctance to identify even one of these products and methods

BZ0853 - further suggests that John does not have command and control
BZ0854 - of the record to access relevant parts of organizational

BZ0858 - John's own call today for deep, rigorous analysis, because

BZ0869 - 3. Sadly, too many attack their opportunities/problems with

BZ0873 - growth or even recognition. ref DRT 4 KO7K

BZ0875 - John's assessment today aligns with analysis submitted to him
BZ0876 - on 020610, noted in the letter to John, ref DIT 3 QH8M,
BZ0877 - explaining that products and methods listed on the proven
BZ0878 - template John submitted on 020610 do not address SDS support
BZ0879 - for KM, ref SDS 68 TG6J, and further aligns with analysis on
