SharePoint at 25 - Some of My Thoughts

Recently as SharePoint turns 25, that means for me I've been using SharePoint now for 22 years.

The only version I never utilized as a manager or power user was the initial 2001 version.

Other than that version I've utilized all the on-premises versions 2019, 2016, 2013, 2010, 2007 and 2003 as a power user, architect, project manager, software engineer and manager.

Never in a million years would I have thought that I'd go from being a journalist to a computer scientist using this high-end piece of software which is now my core skillset.

However, given my background as a journalist, SharePoint lets me be a creative core content creator via many technical avenues.

Additionally, as someone who has been programming since they were 8 years old, SharePoint makes sense to me from a technical standpoint and therefore the platform is a great fit for me and my skillsets.

Here's to another 25 years of this crazy SharePoint environment.
