Independent Word Experts
Last week we had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with eleven of the most knowledgeable Word users in the world.
Specifically, eleven of the thirty-five Word MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) came from all over the world to chat with the Word product team about the good, bad, and ugly of Word 2007.
Spending this time with the Word MVPs reminded me just how knowledgeable these individuals are, and I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to them, and to give everyone else an informal introduction.
For a brief bit of background, Microsoft MVPs are a highly select group of independent (i.e. do not work for Microsoft) technical community leaders from around the world who are recognized for voluntarily sharing their high quality, real world expertise in technical communities.
In short, the Word's MVPs are awesome, have an incredible amount of knowledge about Word, and are ready, willing, and able to share that knowledge.
For more info on the Word MVPs (also linked to from the right side bar):
Finally, there are MVPs for many other Microsoft products and MVPs that deal with the Microsoft Office system as a whole (which include cross-Office product areas such as deployment).
In sum…lots of very knowledgeable people, who can provide lots of help, and lots of thanks from the Word team.
