Thank You and Farewell from Finula Crowe as I venture out beyond Microsoft, you guys rock!!
Dear Developer Community!  This will be my final blog post as Developer Marketing Manager at Microsoft.  I want to THANK YOU for keeping me honest and for all your support and feedback over the years (6 years!).  Some of you I have met having launched at least 3 versions of Visual Studio and built the REMIX Australia brand, some not but your voice has always been heard by me.  I leave behind a VERY dedicated and passionate team of Evangelists.  Make sure you catch up with them: Andrew Coates, Delicate Genius, Dave Glover, Shane Morris, Jeff Alexander, Nick Hodge and many many more.  I'm off to spend a couple of months with my family in Ireland helping out in the family hotel and golfing business.  It'll be a change of pace for now but I know my passion for Australia and the ICT industry will bring me back here very soon!  I will be on Twitter so, please follow my adventures there (@finulation.com).  Wishing you much success in your lives and careers!  Fin :-)

Looking at the family business I'm pretty sure you couldn't get me to leave Ireland .... good luck in whatever you decide to do Fin and thanks for your support!

Good luck Finula & thank you so much for all the effort you put in over the years. I was lucky enough to meet you several times over the years (though I doubt you'll remember, lol) & you were always so willing to listen & help out if you could.

Hope you enjoy your family time in Ireland, you certainly deserve it!

Hi Finula,

the Australian ICT industry has been lucky to have you contributing over the years, so thank you very much for your efforts, voice and ears (when listening) and for all the support you've given the community!

I wish you all the best of luck and hope to see you on these shores again in the very near future!
