Thursday Content Spotlight - December TechNet Guru Winners!

Today we'd like to highlight some of the amazing content that has been coming into our community coffers last month.

Some of it is Azure related, as you'll see below, so I drop a blog here about it.

 

Every month those that are most awesome within our world-wide community contribute some of their knowledge back to the community.

We love them for it. Whenever we stumble upon it when researching whatever we are stuck on, or learning something new, we silently thank the author for their words of wisdom.

Well, here, we'd also like to sing their praises. More about the Monthly TechNet Guru competition and how you can join the fun here.

 

We have so much goodness to show, I'll break it into two blogs, below the gold medal winners for the first half of categories of December's competition results.
