Changing your team site’s home page
O
ne of the fundamental kinds of Web sites that SharePoint 2010 allows 
you to create is a team site. A team site is a SharePoint site that you 
can use to collaborate with your coworkers. If the team site is hosted in your 
company’s extranet or by a public hosting company, you may even be able to 
collaborate with people outside your organization. In most cases, an adminis-
trator will create a team site for you.
Many kinds of teams can use a SharePoint team site to collaborate. For 
example:
 ✓ 
Department members can use document libraries to upload document 
files and enter meetings in a team calendar.
 ✓ 
Project members can use a team site home page to post announcements 
and track important dates.
 ✓ 
Corporate communications can use a team site to store the documents 
and track the tasks required for preparing the company’s annual report.
You need to know your way around some of the basic features of a team site, 
which is exactly what I show you in this chapter.
Requesting Your Team Site
Most organizations have a process for requesting a team site. I’ve seen 
everything from the simple process in which you send an e-mail addressed 
to someone in your IT department to very detailed wizards that walk you 
through the site creation process. One company requires that you write a 
justification for why you want the team site and then submit prototypes.
