Who is Braam?

I had some fun testing it (and as it’s only Braam and myself in the company, it got boring, quickly). Loved the fact that I am the supreme leader though… 🙂

You can ask Who questions about topics and skills as well:

Enjoy checking out “Who”. I wonder how LinkedIn is gonna play into this? Would be epic searching in Teams for a resource from my LinkedIn contacts…. #JustSaying

Purpose of this blog challenge:  I will write 365 blogs in 365 days around Microsoft 365. I did a similar challenge with Office 365, blogs can be found here. I won’t just be talking about the new Microsoft 365 subscription model. I will be sharing any news, tips and tricks around Office / Office 365 / Windows / Mobility and Security. And let’s not forget all the great new Apps & services available.  A lot of what I’ll share on Office and SharePoint will also be applicable to none “Office 365” versions.
