Visio template and stencil for designing SharePoint (MOSS) 2007 portals and sites

Ever since I published a Visio template for SharePoint 2003 solutions two years ago, one question in particular kept coming back: “Do you also have a Visio template for designing SharePoint (MOSS) 2007 sites?” Truth is, I hadn’t, because (a) I stopped designing SharePoint portals and (b) I switched to Axure for prototyping. But thanks to Casey, Dan, Michelle and everyone else asking, I spent some time updating the template and stencil to accommodate SharePoint 2007. And here it is.

Waarom komt RSS in Nederland nog steeds niet van de grond?

Al enige tijd valt het me op dat nog zo weinig mensen RSS kennen en gebruiken, terwijl het al jaren bestaat en het stadium van de internetprofessionals en de early adopters dus allang gepasseerd had kunnen zijn. Vooral de grote onbekendheid van RSS onder kenniswerkers valt me op. Als geen ander zijn zij gebaat bij een efficiëntere informatievergaring.

Visio template and stencil for designing SharePoint 2003 portals and sites (update)

Last January I put up a beta of my Visio template for SharePoint 2003 solutions (including a webparts stencil library) for everyone to use freely. Today I post the final version of this Visio template.

Changes in this version:

• The drawing scale corresponds better with a 1024×768 resolution than the beta version. All webpart and font sizes have been updated as well.
• Each page has metadata directly below the wireframe: Page title (tab name), application name and version (both from document properties).

UPDATE (Oct. 2008): I also have a Visio template and stencil for SharePoint (MOSS) 2007.
