Best Practices for Sharepoint Implementation
Areas are for:
Aggregating Information
Organizaing Information
Presenting Information
Sites are for:
Collaboration space for users
1 to many collaboration (mysites)
Provide a development environment
Insist on distributed administration.
Before you give a portal to a group of users, ensure they are willing to help manage the portal.
You're not installing a portal- you're installing CULTURE CHANGE.
Pitfalls to avoid:
Don't do collaboration in portal use wss
Don't develop taxonomy without users.
Not a document management system
Alerts only sent after content crawed.
Indexing is resource intensive
Need 5 servers for a large implementation
Can not share wss and sps indexes
Total data estimates should include the room for indexes (duplicated across wss and sps)
Index space is (data size * .4) * 3 (That's a lot of room! or 1.2 times the data space needed!)
Don't try to use audiences for security- they are for personalization. User profiles are also not security objects.

I blogged some of my experiences here. I believe a lot of implementations happen without taking the end user's perspective which inevitably leads to a failed implementation.
