Ken's blogging about SharePoint, and great HR

Whether you're a coffee shop or a systems integrator, it's all about the HR. The best thing about working at ei is the people. Seven of us (and I'm sure to be forgetting someone -- Ken, Dmitri, Luis, Thom, Rod, Ali, and myself) presented to a user group at one time or another this past year on topics across the MS spectrum (Toronto .Net User Group, Metro Toronto .Net User Group, BizTalk User Group, Toronto SharePoint User Group, Toronto CodeCamp, and elsewhere). Three of us (Rod, Luis and myself) are active in running three of the groups. And this is without any prodding from the company, we're all people who just like to do this stuff. I never quite sat down and thought about it before but wow, strange bunch.

I owe a special thanks to Ken Wong who came to the TSPUG meeting last month to walk everyone through the new features of MOSS 2007. Just a day before the meeting I thought "hey, Ken is already involved in a couple of MOSS 2007 projects, I bet his demos would be cooler than mine." Not only was I right, but Ken managed to scrape his calendar and make it happen. Over the long weekend Ken started blogging, and right from the first post you know it's going to be a good one.
