I just received the email congratulating me on being renewed as an MVP for 2011. I’m still in the Cluster / High Availability-area and will this year try to focus on more of that… There’s a lot of fun areas and lots of new stuff coming out from Redmond, so it’s kinda hard to keep focus on just one topic.… Read the rest
After a long wait today the email finally showed up in my inbox. I’ve been awarded the Microsoft MVP award in Cluster / High Availability for another year. As you might or might not know this award is given to those who spent time and effort in teaching others about Microsoft technologies, answering questions both live and on the internet and speaking at events such as TechEd.… Read the rest
The human body seems to be a clockwork of when it’s time to go to bed or get up. Unfortunately it doesn’t do well with timezones and crap like that. The last few days I’ve been tired around 15.30 every day, gone to bed around 21 and been awake at 03.30.… Read the rest

Yesterday (day 3) was spent discussing a lot of stuff that I due to my NDA can’t tell you about. Or I could, but I’d probably not be an MVP for much longer… But we discussed some improvements for both client and server in the upcoming versions and watched some demos.… Read the rest
After yesterdays keynote, which offered a bunch of laughs due to the speech to text malfunctions, today was the first day filled with sessions.
I joined the file systems and storage MVP’s for the days first two sessions. The first one was a “keynote” and the second one was on client/server backup.… Read the rest
Sitting in the lobby of Seattle Sheraton, preparing some stuff for TechDays in March. Me, Björn Axell and Anders Bengtsson went to register for the summit this morning. It was as always a quick and painless process. The swag (stuff we always get) this year wasn’t that much though.… Read the rest
Just back in front of the computer since arriving home in the middle of the night from a weeks diving in the Red Sea. Spent the week diving with dad, my little brother and sister at Colona in Sharm.
This morning the kids came in serving breakfast in the bed, singing Happy Birthday and giving me loads of drawings that they’ve made while I was gone.… Read the rest
This week I’m doing the Technet summer talkshow, it’s in Swedish and after having listened to those before me mine is very short… No excuses though, it’s bad preparation.
Notice that it’s in Swedish and you’ll find it here: http://www.microsoft.com/sverige/msdn/sommarpratare/vecka28.aspx
Today DHL delivered my MVP award box too.… Read the rest
