Good Guide for Sharepoint novice adminsby Chariti

September 26, 2009: To qualify myself: I am a site collection admin who also manages about 10 teams' sharepoints.
This guide is very simple and yet goes beyond the contributor user depth. It groups and categorizes subjects (like the various sites, pages and web parts) in a way that makes it easier for me to learn what they are AND decide what to do with them. The subject matter is very clearly laid out and very easy to find. Sometimes the subject skips around the book, in the same way a recipe book might tell you to 'add a sauce', but you have to go to a different area of the cookbook to get the recipe for the sauce...this book does that in that it says 'this library useful for this kind of site, please refer back to our description of the site on page xx'. I haven't looked in the book and NOT found what I'm looking for, yet.User's Guide great for its intended audienceby Anonymous

June 05, 2007: For any orgnaization that is implementing SharePoint for end-user use, this book is an extremely valuable. The documentation on Microsoft's website and within the help links within the Sharepoint portal are nearly unusable for an end-user, and definitely cannot be used as an initial learning guide. This book takes up the slack. If you have 'power' end-users in your organization who will be using the out-of-the-box features of Sharepoint to customize their portals, this book is for them. It can also be used as a reference for learning how to implement features and navigate through the various setup menus. This is not a technical reference - it is for end users. While this book touches on how to programatically customize Sharepoint, it is not the main purpose. Once you have programmed your portal, and now need to release it to end users, give THEM this book. You'll be happy about how few questions you will get back about using Sharepoint, since they will be well informed.
