Accidentally on Purpose and Atlanta

 

Seems that Mike has finally come into the blogging world and I for one am most eagerly awaiting his upcoming blog posts! Mike is someone I met at SAP and later found out that he's got one of the coolest jobs in the world.

Mike is actually the guy responsible for the "Blogger's Corner" at SAP and has been doing an amazing job together with his team (Stacey and the others) to make sure that SAP put's it's money where it's mouth is and really opens it's doors to the bloggers.

Now last year this was hugely outward facing, Mark was the only blogger present who actually worked for SAP. This year thanks to Mike a few others are getting the chance to attend as well, me included. We'll still be the minority but this year there will actually be a couple of SAP bloggers present as well at Sapphire Atlanta.

It seems that blogging has taken a good hold within SAP as well as outside of SAP and some of us (though most of my SAP blogging happens internally and on SDN) are starting to really find ourselves in the middle of what is happening, we've so much freedom it's kind of scary in terms of what we can blog about. Over the last several months I've only received one email telling me something was "not bloggable" and since it really did not fall into my realm of interest I didn't give it a second thought.

So a huge thank you out to Mike has his team for helping to make things so interesting for a blogger at SAP and I look forward to Atlanta -- blank tapes and recording devices are all ready to go...

Craig, thanks for the call out. As for having the coolest job at SAP? Ya know, you just might be right about that!

Slight nit - last year Jeff Nolan was with SAP and he rallied some of 'my folk' as part of the effort with Mike.

I'm glad you're coming Craig - initial thinking I heard was that you are 'tech' SAPPHIRE is business and therefore not for you.

Looking forward to meeting up.

Hi Dennis,

No diss intended on Jeff - none at all! Jeff did am amazing job with the whole team to get things kicked off.

True I am "tech" to an extent but also not - funny that way ;-)

See you there!
