Three in a row: MVP again!

MVP_BlackOnly I am pleased to inform the readers of this blog that I have been awarded the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Award for the third consecutive year. The MVP Award is given to exceptional technical community leaders who actively share their high quality, real world expertise with others.

I was first awarded MVP in October 2006 in the ISA Server category. Currently this is known as the ForeFront category.

I thank the Almighty for giving me strength, time and energy to serve the IT community. Let me also thank all of my readers out there for their constant support and words of encouragement. I look forward to continue being a part of the Global MVP community that serves, influences and eases the lives of many IT professionals everyday.

Update (13 Oct 2008): Here’s a picture of the Award:
