SharePoint 2013 Learning Has Begun

We'll start our SharePoint upgrade officially next month, so it's time to start learning all I can about SharePoint 2013 (long story, thought we were upgrading to 2010 and had been learning all I could there, now know we're going to 2013 instead).

My Kindle has a couple of titles already:

SharePoint 2013 First Look for Power Users by Asif Rehmani
SharePoint 2013 Development Machine by Sahil Malik & Srini Sistla

I also purchased: Beginning SharePoint 2013 Building Business Solutions by Amanda Perran, Shane Perran, Jennifer Mason, and Laura Rogers.

Off to a good start! Have other recommended reading for me? Let me know!

Creating a SharePoint blog post using Word 2010

Create your blog posts in Word 2010 and post to your SharePoint blog (or other blogs such as Blogger). It's really quite simple. Open Microsoft Word 2010. From the Start menu, Select NEW>Blog Post The first time you do this, you'll be asked to register your blog platform. Word provides several options. I selected Blogger (of course). Provide your account # and password: Then you'll be asked to provide Picture Options... provide your server location or choose None. (see this page from Microsoft for more details on the Picture Options: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/help-with-blogging-in-word-HA010164021.aspx?ver=14&app=winword.exe#_Toc321212396 ) ) Type your blog post as normal, inserting pictures if desired and publish. This Microsoft Video shows you how: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/video-use-word-2010-to-post-to-a-sharepoint-blog-VA101790488.aspx
