Presenting: Applying Office 2007 and MOSS
Vanessa Williams is a developer and systems analyst whose work experience spans several industries — including transportation, petroleum marketing, manufacturing, retail, and (most recently) motor-sports entertainment. She spent last year implementing SharePoint Portal Server 2003 for a local sports entertainment venue. She has ten years of experience in systems administration, implementation, and software development. In previous lives she was a shipping clerk, a payroll clerk, a forklift driver, and a candlestick maker (just kidding).
Vanessa grew up in Indianapolis, where she graduated from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management and Computer Information Systems.
In addition to writing and consulting, Vanessa maintains the sharepointgrrl.com Web site where she aggregates SharePoint content. She is feverishly at work on her next title, Visual Studio 2005 All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies. [Ed. It is finished and in print.]
To quote from her Amazon Blog:- " I live in Indianapolis with my partner, our cat Carrot, and our dog Rosie.

Presentation Abstract:
Check back for it... For now close your eyes and remember the 5th Wave cartoon from page 211 of her book that goes with the partial caption
- "... Of all the chicken
farmers operating web sites, yours has the most impressive cluck-through rate."
