vExpert 2013

Well I’m pleased to announce that myself and 579 others have received the vExpert Award for 2013.  So, what exactly is a vExpert?

“We’re pleased to announce the list of vExperts for 2013. Each of these vExperts have demonstrated significant contributions to the community and a willingness to share their expertise with others. We are blown away by the passion and knowledge in this group, a group that is responsible for much of the virtualization evangelism that is taking place in the world — both publicly in books, blogs, online forums, and VMUGs; and privately inside customers and VMware partners. Congratulations to you all!”

This is the first year that I have received the vExpert award and I am extremely honoured.  The VMware community is great to be involved with and I’m constantly learning from my peers and industry experts.  A big thanks go out to John Troyer and all the team involved.  It must be a huge task to go through all applicants and verify all information.  As an added bonus Tinti are offering all vExperts a free polo t-shirt with the vExpert logo and your twitter handle here.
