Hey, I got a Microsoft MVP Award!

It’s been a pretty busy new year for me (Codemash, clients, hockey, holidays, etc.), which is why I’m just now getting a chance to write this post.

A lot people already know, but on January 1st I received an MVP award from Microsoft for my work in the developer community. I’m very proud and honored to receive this award. I would like to thank all the people who nominated me and the community for it’s support. I’m looking forward to 2010 being a great year for the development community and am excited to continue to be a part of it!

I really didn’t expect to receive one this quarter. In fact that only reason I checked that e-mail account that days was because I was looking for an old e-mail from someone else! For those of you who were expecting a funny/witty/insightful post about this, I apologize. To be honest I’m still trying to wrap my head around this very unexpected surprise.

See you at Codemash!

It seems like when one stops trying too hard and hoping too hard - and just focuses on doing what they personally think is right, good, and/or fun - that's when the really good things happen. Congrats, you deserve it! Keep up the good work.
