From one of the recent project I was giving task to document what user experience would be when they upload the “effected document” to one of the websites within share point, MOSS.

Installation share point was very straight forward and easy and I am including MS best practices link in this article. Simulation user experience ahead of time was fun and I used hand from close body Pushpendu Biswas.

Here are the notes and hope helps someone out there.
