Things have got a little less confusing..
So, big congratulations to Alex J - first an MVP and now a Microsoft employee to boot... (which I suspect trumps his MVP status, probably should be MVE now, for Employee!).
I've been working with Alex (2 Alex's... very confusing) on a pretty interesting project for the last couple of months, and it's been a lot of fun getting a brain dump from a guy who's so passionate about technology (and community too) and with so many varied and original ideas... Whenever Alex J starts a sentence with "now I've been putting some thinking around this" you generally know your about to learn something cool :)
On a side note, I'm thinking of taking over the organization/blogging etc. of the Sylvia Park Architecture Chats in the other Alex's absence... It would be a real shame to let it die once Alex J has moved to the states... at any rate, something to talk about this coming Thursday at the next chat!
