Evangelizing Passion

In my last post I indicated that I had joined Microsoft as an Academic Developer Evangelist. I have started a blog called ‘Evangelizing Passion’ where I am sharing experiences in my current role, as well as a stuff concerning what I am/will be doing and also generally about technology (Micrsoft or not).

I have also started the ‘Evangelizing Passion’ facebook group which anyone is welcome to join. Here we can share more and learn from each other:

[Evangelizing Passion is]A group for those passionate about technology and about microsoft developer tools and platfoms. Especially students. Innovation, problem solving, that’s what we’re all about!

For those of us on MySpace I will also be starting a MySpace edition of Evangelizing Passion soon!

Cherio!

One Week at Microsoft

So this is the biggest announcement of the year. I officially joined Microsoft this last Monday. Today marks my first work week here and, well… what can I say… it totally rocks.

One huge thing that’s hit me smack in the face in my experience so far is simply the sheer scale at which this organization operates. It’s truly impressive.
