I just got word that I have been awarded the Microsoft Most Valued Professional (MVP) Award for 2012, in the Directory Services discipline. This is a great honor, and I accept it humbly.

First off, thanks to those who nominated me and gave me advice on how to become an MVP, and also Microsoft for finding me worthy. I am really looking forward to connecting with the MVP community, and with the Directory Services group particularly. Also, thanks to everyone who has congratulated me on the award.

I have a lot of new ideas for new community content, so keep watching this space!
