So .. I was browsing SharePoint 2013 REST http://servername/_api/site today and all I was getting is the below:

While you still can right click and view source and you will see the XML because if you have feed reading view on, you will not able to see the XML

FYI I am using IE 10, so in order to view XML in IE 10: do the steps below:

Tools > Internet Options.
Select the Content Tab
Under Feeds and Web Slices, select Settings
Under Advance section untick Turn on Feed reading view

Now the feed viewer will not be showing, but the data will be displayed in XML.

Then I was able to see the XML J while it works without needing to do anything in Chrome … Ya I hear you but what to do.

This has nothing to do with SharePoint 2013 but it has to do with XML in IE.

Enjoy browsing J

I have been thinking what to write about my experience in the ESPC .. but I thought if I kept thinking I will forget and get more busy and won’t write anything which is the thing that happens a lot. So I thought I just open the document and write what I experienced and that will be more from my heart than being arranged in bullets. This is not a technical article anyway.

I was speaker in the ESPC; my session was about “What’s new in the SharePoint Designer 2013” enjoy the slides

European SharePoint Conference @ Conpenhagen … It was my first trip to Europe. Great experience, great adventure.. no matter what, the best part is meeting SharePointers J

The Conference was in a great venue, the organizers did really hard work to make it happen in that way. THANK YOU AGAIN & AGAIN.

Please correct me if I am wrong but really this is the biggest SharePointers gathering I have ever seen, it was always Tech.Ed that have big number of attendees and sessions but it was more than just SharePoint sessions now this one was for SharePointer Lovers only 😉

Great sessions, Impressive keynotes. Around 1500 attended, 78 sponsor, 90 sessions.

SharePointers who really love this product, you will find them; helpful & Volunteer people.. help you find what you need, solves your problem, try to find solution with you and more.. and on top of this they are collaborative people indeed .. it is my experience with most of the conferences & events too.

ESPC Dinner was really amazing gathering, I was really happy to be there, I meet people I only follow them on Twitter or FB or there blogs & who they follow me too, I meet them in person; which is really v nice J and hope to see them again soon.

One Impressive person I have been a year blogging with him Dave Coleman [MS MVP] but never met him, in the conference I had the chance to say hi J

As always best speaker ever Raffel Lukawiecki, this time he had a keynote which is really valuable.

SharePointers Ladies: Agnes Molnar, Erica Toelle & Sonja Madsen.

Actually more and more and more.. people I never knew but was amazing and talented, like Mike Fitzmaurice gorgeous, his experience was really obvious.

I call them my friends, Joel Oleson, Michael Noel, Paul J. Swider, and I hope Bjørn Furuknap doesn’t mind to call him friend too who gave me lots of advices there and I really enjoyed listening to him ” I will do it, I didn’t forget “.

I will not make it long, let me share some pics I have honor to meet those people with me.
