I’m very pleased to announce that today I received notification from Microsoft that I have been presented with the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for Windows Home Server for the second year running. However, it gives me greater pleasure to announce that MediaSmartServer.net now have a third MVP on the team as Damian (dbone1026) has been awarded for his efforts with Media Center. Congratulations Damian and welcome to the club!
Here’s what the MVP site has to say about this award.
We seek to recognize the best and brightest from technology communities around the world with the Microsoft® Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award.
These exceptional community leaders come from a wide range of backgrounds. They are teachers, artists, doctors, engineers, as well as technologists, who actively share their high-quality, real-world technical expertise with the community and with Microsoft.
With the MVP Award, we thank these inspiring individuals for representing the voice of thousands in the community through the powerful and independent feedback they give us, and for helping our customers maximize the potential of their software.
It’s great being recognised for what we do on the site, and I’d like to thank Microsoft for the award!
