To raise awareness of its new product, blackpoint, K2 is running a game that is open to anybody and includes such prizes as a 30" flat panel monitor, a Canon PowerShot Pro digital camera and a Nintendo WII. Playing the game is simple - register here and after doing so, you will see links on the right hand menu pertaining to clues. These clues are hints as to which sites may have a points card on them, a points card being an orange bull's-eye with a code inside. Use that code to redeem the points on the K2site. Happy hunting!
Well, it has certainly been a while since I revisited my InfoPath Integration thread, and unfortunately, so much has changed in the direction of my 'real world' scenario that I am no longer attempting to tackle the same issues that I presented at the beginning of the thread. Not that I'm not tackling the same issues, I guess, more like I've done a complete 180 on how I had originally planned to solve the problems. So I will be abandoning the InfoPath Integration thread and hopefully starting a new one shortly that is centered around smart object implementation and maybe even an interesting new product by K2 called 'blackpoint'.
There isn't much I can say about blackpoint that hasn't aleady been said, as I have not gotten my hands dirty with the product yet other than reading up on its spec sheet, watching a couple of demos and learning the target audience of the product. blackpoint attempts to find the middle ground between SharePoint workflow and full-blown blackpearl - it is between the two products in terms of capabilities but is designed to be more user-friendly (non-developer user, that is) than blackpearl. So gone are smart objects and code-behind, but new is a more user-friendly design surface. I hope stumble through this new product a bit as time goes on, so more posts on this topic to follow.
