Chapter 1: Getting to Know Your Team Site
Viewing Your Team Site in the Browser
You access your team site using a Web browser, such as Internet Explorer or
Mozilla Firefox. You need the Web address or URL of your team site, which
you can get from your SharePoint administrator. You also need a network
user account with permissions.
In my case, the Web address for my team site is
http://myteamsite
To access your team site:
1. Open your Web browser.
2. Type the Web address for your team site in the address bar and press
Enter.
Figure 1-1 shows the home page for a SharePoint team site.

All SharePoint team sites have the same features. If you’re using a new team
site, your site should match the one in Figure 1-1. If your site has been cus-
tomized, it may look slightly different. Never fear: All the same features are
still there. You may just have to hunt a little bit to find them.
