Where do I go from here?

Blogs are just great things.  They allow an amazing amount of knowledge sharing in such an interesting and captivating way.  I've known about blogs for quite some time now thanks to the evangelism of Dave Winer.  Ever since my first diversion to his site I could tell I was hooked.  I signed up for the newsletter and have been following ever since.  I mean, I feel like I know the guy. I guess that is what makes blogs so dad-gum interesting.  You can just start following links and the next thing you know you're off into someone else's world trying to figure out why they have a certain opinion or learning about some new thing that you've never even heard of before.  It allows you to hear from people on topics that they are passionate about and with which they know something about (most of the time).  It is like being able to get advice from experts on just about anything without even leaving your keyboard...

Which brings me to where I am now.  I really don't feel that I'm an expert at much of anything, but I do strive to be.  My intention is to post information that I'm privy to here at Microsoft in a way that will help other developers and hopefully make their job easier.

Part of what really got me inspired to create my own blog was Channel9.  I think it is great and truly revolutionary. I'm interested in seeing where it goes and I hope to be able to contribute to it in some form or another.

But this blog I will use to collect and share nuggets of information.  Not quite sure what those nuggets will consist of yet, but stay tuned...

Hi there!

Its always good to see another Microsoft blogger online. What area of development are you in? Are you the same 'dsutton' on channel9?

I look forward to reading more from you.

Richard.

Hey Richard,

Yes, I'm the same dsutton as on Channel9. I wanted this blog to be dsutton instead of dsutton1, but for some reason dsutton was already taken...

I'm currently doing a CPR rotation for the Visual C++/C# developer support team in PSS! It is just awesome and I really am enjoying it.

Hey, and thanks for being my first comment!! It is really kind of inspiring to think that someone actually did read what I had written.
