So, there have been quite a few posts lately that trash SharePoint. The comments are along the lines of "it's too hard to install/ develop on" or "it's too complicated". To all the whiners out there all I have to say is $(%&P($#%(#$%#$(, sorry I mean suck it up. Geez! I mean you are working in TECHNOLOGY!!!!!! Hello!! The world changes, new technologies come and old ones go. SharePoint is the future of development for at least the next 5 years. Deal with it. I love this blog post in response to one of these boo-hooers:

It really says it all. Especially this part:
"I don’t care if you don’t want to develop on SharePoint. In fact, neither does your boss. Because he’s going turn on SharePoint in your enterprise anyway, just like everybody else is. One billion in sales baby, and growing fast. And your boss is going to want customizations and apps written for SharePoint. If you can’t do it, your boss is going to find someone else to do it. Like me."
And from Bob Mixon:

Couldn't have said it better myself! If you think SharePoint is too hard/complicated/difficult then you probably shouldn't be working as a developer. Why dont you run on home and let the grown ups get back to work
