experience valuable productivity losses when employees are

company announcements, events, discussion boards, blogs,
document libraries, alerts, and internal and external sites.

configure your SharePoint starter site and lead your
business into a new era of productivity.

The 2009 Recovery Plan: What
It Means For Your Business
reprinted with permission from HP
 When the going
gets tough, the tough have a smart game plan. And with over
2 million jobs lost in 2008, the situation is definitely
getting tough.
Fortunately, the US has relieved our 26
million small businesses—those which gross $15 million or
less in profits annually[1]–in more ways than one with its

can take advantage of the plan is by carefully investing in

Even for larger
businesses that don’t directly benefit from the recovery
plan, making these types of changes while business is slower
can prepare you for when the economy picks up.

And then, before I
could find an electrical outlet — Sea Tac has recently increased the
number of available outlets, by the way; finally a reprieve for
business travelers whose budget for airline club membership has been
cut — the laptop expired.

Why Your Small Business Needs an
Intranet
by Kim Komando
Reprinted with permission from the Microsoft Small Business Center
One thing I like about
running a small company is the ability to act quickly. Decisions are
not bogged down by layers of management. In fact, most moves are
made with the interested parties meeting around a conference table.
But there can come a
point when your business outgrows this arrangement. You need
constant, reliable and secure communications with others in the
company to ensure successful growth. You need an intranet.
