Early adopters of SharePoint 2007
December 8th, 2006
No comments
A few very early adopters (LloydsTSB, Corgi and Ministry of Sound) have gone live with public websites using the new MS SharePoint 2007. Unlike the old SharePoint 2003 (which was very focused on document management) the new MOSS 2007 is very focussed on Enterprise Content Management. I say congrats to these companies, but if you look closely at these important details:
- The customers are departmental or small organizations
- They are implemented by system integrators
- Note the default /Pages/default.aspx URL
- If you view source you should wear your Stevie Wonder glasses. Quite a mess of SharePoint-specific code and none of the sites validate very well at W3C (though to be fair, markup quality is partly an implementation issue)
Of course these are the first sites released in MOSS and I’m sure there is still a lot to be learned as in best practices etc.

Briljant! Dat de concurenten er nog niet aan hebben gedacht verbaast mij zeer. Het is eigelijk zo simpel. Google gebruikt voornamelijk pageranking om zoekresultaten te tonen. Pageranking wordt eigelijk bepaald door links die naar de site toegaan. Als jij een site hebt waar andere sites (met hoge pageranking) naar toe linken krijg je een hogere pageranking. Dus stel er zijn 10 webmasters van 10 grote sites (met hoge pagerank) die vinden dat jouw site de moeite waard is heen te linken – dan krijg je een betere pageranking en kom je hoger in de zoekresultaten.
Als je daar over nadenkt is dat best eng! Wat je als resultaat krijgt kan dus de mening zijn van 10 mensen. Dus 100 miljoen mensen krijgen de mening van 10 te zien als beste resultaat! Er is veel discussie over het pageranking zoals het nu bestaat – en terecht.
Door statistieken gratis aan te bieden weet Google straks wat mensen van jou site vinden. Door de tijd die ze er doorbrengen, welke pagina’s ze zien, waar ze heen gaan als ze klaar zijn heeft jou site een waarde. Dan wordt de pageranking democratischer bepaald. De mening van de bezoekers wordt meengenomen!
Trek de lens breeder – Google heeft over een jaar of zo de grootste database met statistiek ter wereld en weet alles van wat wij op het internet doen, sta voor stap. Google zal trends zien aankomen – niet alleen zoek trends maar ook politieke, religieus, terrorisme, wetenschappelijk en zo veel meer.
Google Analytics biedt de functionaliteiten die men zou verwachten bij een goed statistieken pakket. Van navigatie patronen tot AdWords rendementen. Er is natuurlijk een export van de verschillende statistieken mogelijk. De functionaliteiten zijn te vergelijken met andere grote bekende leveraciers.
