Tips, Tricks & Memoirs from a Vista Master

It is not often in this business you get something for free. Recently I spoke with my colleague and my co-author of the book "Administrators Guide to Microsoft Office 2007 Servers". Peter has been doing some pretty cool things and I thought my readers could benefit from some of his latest projects. I spoke to you in May about his company ClipTraining. Here's a little background about Peter and what he's offering to the technology community.

J. Peter Bruzzese has worked for everyone. From Microsoft to Goldman Sachs to… well… even Network World (he was a guest blogger for a month). He has decided that in addition to working for others… he wanted to assist the community at large and so he has created a few free training clips for both users and admins alike that you might find helpful.

To learn more about protecting your users from social engineering, Peter is offering free training clips to do just that. http://www.cliptraining.com/SocialEngineering.htm or www.youtube.com/cliptraining

In addition, he has decided to release his Exchange/PowerShell knowledge to the world for free through a new site called www.exclusivelyexchange.com where you can see Peter’s clips, read articles or his blog on Exchange (or administrative info in general).

Last, but not least, Peter spoke at Microsoft’s largest IT Professional conference a few weeks back on the subject “Tricks of the Vista Masters” (which is also the title of his internationally published book). Microsoft Edge interviewed Peter and you can watch the clip here: http://edge.technet.com/Media/tricks-of-the-Vista-Masters-J-Peter-Bruzzese/

The book he’s promoting has a few familiar names within, such as Mark Minasi and others. And you might notice that yours truly has a few masterful tricks included too.

Well… it’s always a good thing when someone assists the community for free.
