SharePoint Developer Introduction for .NET Developers launched

To help drive adoption of SharePoint by Software Developers, MS has launched a campaign to .NET Developers at http://MSSharePointDeveloper.com.

The new material is designed to help .NET Developers to learn the top ten artefacts in SharePoint that are interesting to them. They have created a variety of materials with different learning styles to make getting started with these artefacts easy and it’s all based on the Visual Studio extensions for SharePoint – planned to release v1.2 for Visual Studio 2008 this week also (watch for their announce).
