Renewed as a Microsoft SharePoint MVP for 2012!

I have been renewed as a Microsoft SharePoint Server Most Valuable Professional (MVP) for 2012! This is my 6th consecutive year as a SharePoint MVP. I would like to thank Microsoft for giving me the opportunity to serve the community that is so great. We serve the community even if we are not MVPs but being an MVP gives you that pride and motivation that is important to stay active in the user community on a consistent basis. I have worked with different technologies (both MS and  non-MS) throught out  my career but I can safely claim that the MS SharePoint community is like no other. The passion for community contribution is go great amongst the SharePoint users (developers, admins, end users alike). So I would also like to thank the community, the users all over the world, who work so passionately with SharePoint and share their experiences on blogs, forums, etc. It just feels great to be part of this excellent user community.
