Quick Notes are 2-4 page tasks in a single scenario. Combined, they provide an end-to-end solution for a specific scenario. Individually, they are single-page tasks that you can print and use.

The goal of these exercises is to give you the steps that you need to access data from various sources by using web development tools and technologies such as SharePoint 2010 and Visual Studio 2010. Each task addresses a particular scenario. When you have completed an exercise, you should have a good idea of what that you need to do to use the information for your own applications.
