		<description>Hi Bryce

Make Dynamics (start with CRM) and Sharepoint and TFS (Web Access) consistent to end users. Please.

Remember the early days of office when an end user got used to Excel, and we could show them that the switch from WordPerfect to Word would be fine.

eg. &quot;See Mary, it has the same File Menu and look at the toolbar, and the Tools &#124; Options is the same place.&quot;

Well today I have bosses who love SharePoint, but I get no loyalty from them or their end users, when evaluating CRM4 vs Salesforce for their CRM. No loyalty because knowing SharePoint, does not help you know CRM.

The first thing they want to do is change a few things... add a few fields.... so start with making the customizing consistent... 
eg.
- modifying a list in Sharepoint
- modifying an entity in MS CRM
- modifying a work item in TFS

Should all be the same experience.

PS: More at http://www.ssw.com.au/ssw/standards/bettersoftwaresuggestions/crm.aspx

		<description>Although late to the (official) congratulations game, I have to say again I&#039;m happy it all came together for you (even if it wasn&#039;t in time for BarCamp Seattle) -- it&#039;ll be so great to have another TorCamper in town. 

See you guys soon!</description>

		<description>Congrats Bryce!  Give &#039;em heck down there and please ask them nicely to nuke the GP Report Writer.  GP is a boon as far as new users getting up to speed because there is so much complexity.  Enjoy the coast!</description>

		<description>Congratulations Bryce! I&#039;m happy that you&#039;re taking on new adventures, but like many of us in Toronto I am also sad. You have given more than most to this community from it&#039;s first baby steps, and you will always be part of it. Good luck and see you in the lifestream.</description>

		<description>Great News and a wonderful recognition of you skills and passion.

It&#039;s also an opportunity for WR to grace the cover of a Seattle paper - because you know he&#039;ll be in the thick of it as well.</description>

		<description>Brilliant. Tron-o, indeed. Congrats. It&#039;s good timing too, because we&#039;ve basically had Seattle weather here for the past 2 weeks, so you&#039;ll be totally acclimated.

Also, if and when you make it to Fargo, be sure to head to the Mexican restaurant that&#039;s right downtown on the main strip. Seriously the best Mexican I&#039;ve ever had. Soooo good. Yum. Thanks, Fargo.

Peace.
