Continuing on from my post listing reasons to upgrade to SharePoint 2010 where I looked at pages based on a Wiki, I will now look at Tags, Notes and Rating.
The 6 points I’m looking at regarding upgrading from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010 are:
- Page based on Wiki
- Tagging / Notes / Rating
- Multimedia (Assets)
- Easier Announcements
- Web Apps
- PowerPoint Publishing
Tagging / Notes / Rating
It’s much easier to add meta data to your SharePoint pages with the ‘I Like It’ tag. Also you can add notes to pages or individual documents. This will enable staff members to tag documents specifically to class groups or subject areas. All theses tags are then exposed through the search!
To set up ratings go into the document library settings and click ‘Rating Settings’ and click the ‘yes’ radio button. Rating is now available on the document library. This will enable great content to surface above everything else!
Look out for part 3 soon!
Chris.
