Hi MVPs!
Who is going to attend the MVP global summit in Seattle in March?
AFAIK, Registration will officially open on Monday, January 19th at 11:00 AM PST.
The last summit in April 2008 was exciting! :thumb:
Let's go on this year in March! ;)
All indications are that I will be there (already have air tickets), Debi will be along same as last year.
I will be there too. Looking forward to seeing you guys.
I will be there also. Have my plane tickets already :)
Not this time... :mad:
I've now booked air tickets too.
And I've already begun to register (hotel WestIn, four nights from from 1 March..., although it is still subject to change)
I wouldn't like to pay the second half of the hotel price, so would be glad to share room with someone from our community (and not with someone like that German guy that didn't want to allow us tasting Russian "Parliament" in our room last year :))
I plan to be there as well :).
Last year the Codeguru folks got together Wednesday night for dinner. We might want to try that again!
Brad!
It would be great, Brad! :thumb:
I'm looking forward to the Codeguru dinner :)
I'm staying in sheraton this time.
stayed at the Sheraton last time. not at all impressed, on the contrary...Quote:

Wednesday CG dinner sounds good.
Hello all readers and coders
I don't know how one can be an MVP ? How easy is it to be one ?
:D
[deletion is not allowed :D]
it is not easy to be an MVP. if you be a honeybee without honey you will never get MVP but if you be a bee with adequate honey it is likly to be after several years of exposing honey :wave:
I don't know about that - part of the MVP award is a jar of honey.Quote:

You get one wish. I guess that's what he asked for. ;)
Really...they just covered me in necter, put me in a room full of bees and told me to wait...... ;)Quote:

It was the least I could do - the original reference to honey was confusing at best.
No I figure it out in my own way (fine) of imagination.
The honey jar's meaning becomes different starting from toraj58's rhetorical question! :(
this is part of MVP test.Quote:

Remember the sure fire way of becoming an MVP - just be yourself.
what do you mean?
...just bee yourself.Quote:

Sometimes it's better off to not mention honey bees.
Arjay, i really don't understand you; what i said is similar to an iranian Proverb but if it means something bad in american i apologize. but iranian meaning is good.
I think this thread has buzzed completely out of control..... ;) :)
Unfortunately.... :sick:Quote:

good to hear :)
What kind of party is this?
Palermo's parties are primarily a chance to do networking with other people. Palermo tends to have these at major Microsoft events such as Tech Ed, PDC, and the MVP Summit (check out the site and you can see). There are generally lots of people standing around chatting while enjoying a drink.Quote:

That is my understanding also. However, the parties (at least those I have been to) are sponsored by corporate vendors in the "space". So there can be good vendor contact that is not available within a Microsoft sponsored environment (ie the Summit itself).Quote:

Alrighty then - party on Garth.
