The Microsoft Subnet has become overrun!

This morning, I went to post another blog entry and noticed that we have lots of new names and faces on the Microsoft Subnet. In other words, we have become overrun with people wanting to jump on MS Subnet train. The interesting aspect of this development is that most of the newbies (Rand, Mike, and Colin) are also my colleagues. I’m lucky in that respect. I get to work with these experts on an almost daily basis and tap their wealth of knowledge on many different topics. They truly are at the top of their game and it is exciting to see an avenue open up for their knowledge to be shared with everyone. Summarized: Be sure to post lots of questions and comments for these guys. On another note, I noticed that Jeffery Snover posted a picture of what he is calling the “Tower of Power” (basically, just a picture of PowerShell books on a chair). What is cool about this picture is the visual reference to the sheer number of books, community projects, bloggers, etc. that have taken on PowerShell. The adoption of the “little shell that could” just continues to grow with each passing day. Sadly, the Unleashed book (among many others books) was not part of the pictured stack. But, I was pleased to see that Joe Brinkman pointed that out. As always, now that the book (Windows PowerShell Unleashed) has been out for a couple of months I’m looking for feedback. Considering, that I may do a 2nd edition or future PowerShell books, your feedback is invaluable. For all of today’s Microsoft news, visit the Microsoft Subnet.
