Re: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content
For the homepage of some portals I have made: * Blog rollup from in-house blogs. Using the content query WebPart and a custom itemstyle to rollup SharePoint blogs. * 2-day weather forecast of all the company's office locations with icons and temperature high and lows. Consuming an external XML file from a weather bureau and formatting it with a dataview WebPart.

RE: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content
On an intranet I once managed (early - SharePoint 2001) we wrote a web part that displayed a single button "have some fun" that would, on click, redirect the user to a random internet site (from a SharePoint list of sites) that had flash games on it. The trick is never to show the intranet to managers... We also had a web part that showed a graph of the team's performance in real time - each person could see how he\she were doing.

RE: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content
Check out this MOSS 2007 internet website as an example - http://amanaliving.com.au/Pages/index.aspx The home page randomly displays a staff profile under "Spotlight On Our People", and it's linked to the individual staff member's profile page. It features a different person with every refresh, only a subset of 3 have been selected to be featured randomly on the homepage though, all configurable via a site list.

RE: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content
Bill, It really depends on what information you think is most important to most of your users. The home page should summarise the most relevant content, and then allow your users to navigate to their particular areas of interest for more specific information. Out portal is made up of multiple "Practices" or "Communities of Interest" which allow staff to contribute information based upon their roles within the organisation, as well as areas they have an interest in. Our home page shows a summary of the following: - Useful internal/external links - Top 5 news items - Upcoming Social Events calender - Most recent internal Blogs - Employee Lookup - Quick Search - List of available "Practices" to join. Don't overcrowd the home page, after all, it's more of a welcoming page to allow the user to get a quick glance of what's around.
