Just over a week ago, I had the pleasure of presenting at the Minnesota Developers Conference in lovely Minnetonka, Minnesota. I'd like to extend a sincere "thank you" to Farhan Muhammad and our host, ILM, for putting on a great conference and to all the attendees that spent the day with us.

My talk was on SharePoint and it's role as a service platform in the evolving world of software plus services. The talk was a tall order in that S+S alone is a hefty enough topic, but then to incorporate the SharePoint specific aspects on top of that was quite a challenge. I hope everyone who attended my talk found it interesting and, hopefully, thought-provoking.

As promised, here are the slides from my presentation (minus the e-Sponder video) if you'd like to review or use it to talk about S+S in your organizations. As I mentioned during my talk, I'm always glad to talk about this if you have questions or ideas.
