I'm an MVP!
I found out this morning that I've been named a SQL Server MVP (Most Valuable Professional).
For those of you who don't know what the MVP program is, here's a brief overview.
Each quarter, Microsoft selects a group of people across many different technologies to become MVPs. Your selection is based on your community involvement over the past year. Community involvement can include presenting at user group meetings, posting answers to questions on newsgroups, writing articles for online magazines, etc.
My community involvement is primarily through the Professional Association for SQL Server (PASS). I currently serve on the Board of Directors and am in charge of two techincal publications - a newsletter that goes out every other week and a magazine that goes out every other month.
Thank you to everyone who has supported my efforts in the community over the years. You'll probably be seeing much more of me out there in the future.
