Dan Mitchell – vExpert 2011 (really?)

by

July 1, 2011

 

I received an email this morning that started like so:

Dear Dan Mitchell,
We’re pleased to designate you as a vExpert 2011 as recognition of your contributions to the VMware, virtualization, and cloud computing communities. You’ve done work above and beyond, and we’re delighted to

communicate more closely, to share resources, and to offer other opportunities for greater interaction throughout the year as we continue to grow

knowledge and success in the community of IT professionals. Welcome to the vExpert 2011 Program!

I knew I had been nominated, but never thought I would actually get it!

Special thanks to the folks who nominated me, and for all of you who have supported me by buying VMware vSphere for Dummies.

Sincerely,

Dan Mitchell
