- [Voiceover] It's wicked easy to post a message in Yammer.…Simply use the update area, click,…and enter your information.…So, I have a post, I want to know if anyone from Landon…attended Ignite last year, if so who,…and who's interesting in attending…Microsoft Ignite this year.…Now, notice right now it's going to the whole company,…I don't want that,…I actually would like this to go to IT North America.…I could also send it to other people.…For example, I might send something to Jonathan,…who I report to,…so that he knows that I'm asking,…and he's not a member of the information technology…North America group,…so I'd have to call him out separately.…
Notice, I can also add topics.…Now, I wish at this point that I could pull down…a list of all topics.…I can hit the tab key, anything I want,…and it won't pull down that list for me,…and there really isn't anyone who's going to…curate that list,…so the danger, the possibility here…is that I will add a topic that already exists.…Remember, I can see topics by going to the topics list…
