Happy Holidays from FluentPro
I am speaking on Project Server Conference 2012
Deleting Project Sites left after deleted projects
Sometimes, when users delete projects, they forget to check the checkbox to delete Project Site.
Please find a video how to delete Project Sites when projects were deleted and Project Sites are not.

Project Sites in Microsoft Project Server 2010 - What is missing?
In many of our Project Server 2010 Implementations we see that people are not using project sites to the full extent. Most store documents, risks and issues - but usually that's all.
Is that a lack of knowledge how to use sites? Is that a lack of functionality? What is missing there to make Project Site an important and useful instrument for team collaboration?
In next posts I will try to provide a series of posts and videos abount working with Project Sites and Templates, customization and management.

Cloud. When Project Server and SharePoint will be there?
Found interesting article - http://www.forbes.com/sites/joemckendrick/2011/12/14/10-ways-cloud-computing-will-disrupt-our-businesses-in-2012/
I was surprised by "cloud first" approach for government. This is extremely good push for the cloud companies and if government goes to cloud - big companies will follow as well into both private and public clouds, and we will see decreasing number of on-premise deployments. The problem I see is that every company uses "cloud" as they understand it..and often it is just a marketing buzz for the "reshaped" old infrastructure.
In our practice - we tired of on-premise deployments, permissions, limited access, non-standardized configuration and troubleshooting all that. We want to go to some centralized and standardized model - it will make our life easier and products more stable.
Microsoft goes there with Office365. The question is - when the full versions of Project Server and SharePoint will be cloud-enabled? Will happen? And another big question - what would be the limitations for the products and platform? (current SharePoint in Office 365 is ugly and very limited). Time will show...
