I’m a Microsoft MVP!

Two hours ago, I received an email presenting me with the Microsoft MVP award!  The award is given for sharing expertise with the online and offline developer community, which is what I have been doing (or at least trying to do) for the last couple of years through this blog, through online forums and through my consulting and training work.  (Here’s my MVP profile.)

I am very honored to be an MVP, and I give you my word that I will strive to continue contributing to the online and offline developer community in Israel and abroad.

This is also a good time and place to extend a great thank you to quite a few people who made this possible:

• Guy Burstein of Microsoft Israel (and a former MVP himself) who nominated me for the MVP program;
• Alon Fliess (C++ MVP) who has been a professional role model for me in my work;
• My current and past managers and coworkers at Sela Group, which is easily the best software company to work for that I could think of.

That’s it for now!  I will continue my regular blog post series on everything technological in a couple of days.
