Migration done!

That’s that. I moved out my entire homepage to another hosting provider, which provides me with some more options for other sites I plan to launch soon.

Displaying the correct date in search results SharePoint 2010

When you crawl content from a file share, you’ll notice that when SharePoint displays search results, all the displayed dates are exactly the same. Instead of displaying the date the file was last modified, it seems to display the date on which the file was added to the search index. When you want to display

Translation Search Server Express options in SharePoint Foundation

Lately I’ve been installing a lot of SharePoint Foundation environment. Mainly because it’s free and Dutch folks tend to be a bit cheap 😉 I’ve added Search Server Express 2010 to those installations to enhance the search options available to the users.

M’n sultana’s zijn gekrompen!

Als je te lang hetzelfde doet, dan ga je je op een gegeven moment vervelen. Dat was vast ook het probleem bij de mensen van Sultana. Want tja, dag in dag uit dezelfde koekjes fabriceren is misschien niet de meest opwindende bezigheid. Dus ga je een beetje variëren; koekjes met appel, koekjes met peer, met

Struggling with ASP.NET MVC (2)

For a new project I’ve started, I decided to try out ASP.NET MVC. I consider my ASP.NET skills as good, so I assumed that would give me a head start with MVC. Not sure if it did though, thinking ‘old’ ASP.NET based seems to be more of a challenge as opposed to really helping. A

Heinrich. Mooie vent.

Zo, ik had beloofd om hier af en toe ook een social praatje te houden in het Nederlands, laat ik daar vanavond eens mee beginnen. Terwijl ‘dè wedstrijd’ (heb ik van horen zeggen) op de achtergrond opstaat bekijk ik nog een keertje de weerberichten voor Kirchberg ins Tirol. Daar wordt een doorgewinterde wintersporter niet echt

Compiling audiences in SharePoint 2010

Compiling audiences from code has always been a bit troublesome to do. The things you need aren’t that well documented so it takes some Googling to get everything into place. But for some reason, the articles I found didn’t seem to work in my SharePoint 2010 installation. The result of my job was always 4:

I’m going Dutch!

Untill now, I’ve written all my blog posts in English. That’s because this blog was used for tech stuff (or actually jsiegmund.wordpress.com was the place for that) and I wrote my social stuff elsewhere. But because it’s all me and I wanted people to find me and my stories more easily, I decided I needed
