SharePoint = colaberative document storage

For dev stuff, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint

Note, I have not done any SharePoint development. But I use it often.


>Could someone, please, give me an elevator definition of MS SharePoint? Someone wants to discuss with me a possibility of getting data from VFP to MS SharePoint. Not all data but some data on an intermittent basis. So I am trying to get some ideas of what would be involved and how to approach it.

>TIA for any help.
