Simple question, when someone who has no idea what SharePoint is, how do you explain it to them? It is so simple, but so complicated.
Do you use the 6 pillars?
Great question and I still don’t know the answer. Like Mark, when I try to explain to family members they get this confused look and they have no idea what I’m talking about.
This is a b1tch of a question and I often get family members saying “What is it you do?”.
For starters spend more than 1 or 2 sentences explaining SharePoint to them and they are instantly bored! So if I had to explain it to my granny in 2 : (arghhh… eeek…)
SharePoint is a way to to share information such as documents via an Internet browser. It also allows you to easily build internal web sites that help people discuss and find out things about the company.
