For those who don’t know Kirill, he is the in charge of the entire ERP and CRM business for Microsoft.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you’ve been to &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/convergence/neworleans09/default.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;Convergence in New Orleans&lt;/a&gt; a couple of weeks ago, chances are that you might have read this interview in hard copy.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If not, check out the online version below to get a good idea of what this Convergence was all about and most importantly about Microsoft’s commitment to Partners. Also don’t forget to checkout the nice caricature of Kirill!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;blockquote&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;a title="http://thepartnerchannel.com/wp-content/uploads/pgs_41-60_tpc_spring_09_online.pdf" href="http://thepartnerchannel.com/wp-content/uploads/pgs_41-60_tpc_spring_09_online.pdf"&gt;http://thepartnerchannel.com/wp-content/uploads/pgs_41-60_tpc_spring_09_online.pdf&lt;/a&gt; The interview is on Page 52.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9505018" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/tags/Microsoft+Dynamics/default.aspx">Microsoft Dynamics</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/tags/General/default.aspx">General</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/tags/Community/default.aspx">Community</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/tags/Partner/default.aspx">Partner</category></item><item><title>Sarcasm</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/2008/04/21/sarcasm.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:58:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8415719</guid><dc:creator>girishr</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><comments>http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/comments/8415719.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/commentrss.aspx?PostID=8415719</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;I love Onenote and evangelize it’s use equally as I evangelize CRM.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;This sarcasm from &lt;a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/officeoffline/"&gt;Office Offline&lt;/a&gt; blog by David Salaguinto is the best blog humor I’ve seen in a while.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/girishr/WindowsLiveWriter/Sarcasm_EECF/Illmakenoteofthat_2.gif"&gt;&lt;img title="Illmakenoteofthat" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="397" alt="Illmakenoteofthat" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/girishr/WindowsLiveWriter/Sarcasm_EECF/Illmakenoteofthat_thumb.gif" width="388" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;His blog is one of the reasons why I don’t effectively use my time at work :)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;BTW, shouldn’t he call it Office Dead (Live) instead of Office Offline.

Very exciting isn't it? At least for me it is.&amp;nbsp;BTW, does anyone&amp;nbsp;have a rough count on how many&amp;nbsp;blogs are totally out there?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So who am I and what is this blog all about?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;This is Girish Raja, a Dynamics &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_evangelist" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_evangelist"&gt;Technical Evangelist&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;I am part of an exciting group called Developer &amp;amp; Platform Evangelism (DPE) at Microsoft. My role is to evangelize the &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/" mce_href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/"&gt;Dynamics&lt;/a&gt; suite of products especially within the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_software_vendor" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_software_vendor"&gt;ISV&lt;/a&gt; community. Naturally, I will write a lot about Dynamics, mostly on &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/crm" mce_href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/crm"&gt;CRM&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/ax/" mce_href="http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/ax/"&gt;AX&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to begin with. I am also a general technology and gadget enthusiast and will post some of my related ramblings here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why am I writing this blog?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;After my blog roll ran a little over 200, I felt it is very imperative that I should start writing. I've been procrastinating for well over 2 years but finally the day has arrived! Needless to say, I've been&amp;nbsp;reading and listening to &lt;a href="http://www.davidco.com/" mce_href="http://www.davidco.com/"&gt;David Allen's&lt;/a&gt; "stuff" lately and I am trying to get a hold of my uncontrollable life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How could&amp;nbsp;you find more about me?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the upcoming &lt;a href="http:///" mce_href="http://"&gt;About Me&lt;/a&gt; page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;P.S: I'll try to avoid Jeff Atwood's &lt;a href="http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000834.html" mce_href="http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000834.html"&gt;Thirteen Blog Clichés&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;in the process of writing this blog. But at the end of the day, hey its my blog and I get to write what I want :-)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=4473871" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/girishr/archive/tags/General/default.aspx">General</category></item></channel></rss>
