I told myself I would post the first person in the wild that used my vSphere Stats WordPress plugin. And here is the first I found from Steve’s site: www.virtualizationandwaffles.com

I can’t wait to see what crazy stuff you come up with next…
That was something Chad Sakac told me a few months ago. Back before my latest Celerra VSA version (get it here), or my UIM appliance (sorry that one is vSpecialists eyes only right now).
I really have not done anything off the wall recently. Most of my day to day effort is dedicated to absorbing the information fire-hose that my team deals out on a daily basis. I have a couple of side projects I have been wanting to catch up on but they are all to big to start at the moment.
And to be honest it has been getting to me. I like contributing to the vSphere community and it has been a while (in my head at least) since I released something for that [...]

So on a whim I decided to take the VCP 4 test at VMworld in the Marriot. My new Senior guy, Justin, had studied and was booked. So I decided to follow him up to the table.

But, I did pass without studying. I haven’t had time to really study for it since I am working on the CCNP (thanks again Train Signal!) and Microsoft EA exams.
So I kind of feel like the lucky guy [...]

In my career I was a late starter and fast riser. It wasn’t too long ago I was plugging in monitors and crawling under desks (a job I still highly respect). I owe a lot of my success to my supportive Wife who while she was raising my children, let me spend hours reading complete histories of LAN switching or reference book on WAN protocols. Not to mention every RFC under the sun. I owe a lot to my aggressive nature of never losing a fight whether it was an annoying Outlook bug, or an 801.X config that wouldn’t work right. But I also owe a lot to the technologies that I invested my time and effort behind who ultimately made my career. I bet on certain companies and technologies and they came through for me time and again. And so in this short [...]
