Does SharePoint support blogging?

Question

Hi,
Our company has over 15,000 employees.  What is the possibility of setting up about 7,000 employees for blogging or something like twitter in SharePoint (MOSS).  How is it set up?  What about CAL or licensing requirement.  Is there an enterprise licensing for this?  Where is the best resource for questions like these?

Hi Babsie,

This forum is for software developers who are using the Open Protocol Specification documentation to assist them in developing systems, services, and applications that are interoperable with Windows. The Open Protocol Specifications can be found at: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc203350.aspx. Since your post does not appear to be related to the Open Protocol Specification documentation set we are probably not the best avenue for you to get the most accurate information regarding your request.


I can provide you with a starting point for your research:

However, fo rthe size of the implementation that you are planning, it is very likely that your company would have one or more TAMs (Technical Account Manager) from Microsoft assigned. I would suggest that you try and contact him/her with your inquire since they will be able to align the resources necessary to provide you with the most accurate answer.

Thanks and regards,
