Very helpful video. The only thing that drove me a little crazy was the use of the word "ellipse." I believe it's "ellipsis, " while "ellipse" is a shape or something.

The topic is clearly presented and illustrated, better than others I checked.

Great tutorial! Not sure why a few are complaining about keyboard strikes but, then again I have been accused of sending my keyboards to the House of Ruth. So, I guess I understand. It was normal for me to hear those strikes, so again, great tutorial!

Great tutorial for a beginning, Is there a way you could go into using AD to create a page for searching employees? if there's already a video could you point me in that direction? I've tried searching for them, but they all seem just a bit too advanced this is only my 2nd day working with sharepoint and I'm trying to get moving with the project.
