Welcome, Dave Northey, Microsoft Ireland's new IT Pro Evangelist!

I wanted to extend a very warm welcome to Dave Northey, the newest member of Microsoft Ireland's Developer and Platform Group!

Dave has been working with Microsoft in Ireland for almost ten years, and brings that wealth of experience to his new role of IT Pro Evangelist. 

We're all very excited in the group to have him on board - he'll bring a whole new IT Professional perspective to what we've already being doing with Developers.  It adds a huge dimension to our ongoing aspiration to keep you informed and getting the most out of Microsoft technologies.

So, (even though he's been working with Microsoft almost ten times longer than I have :) ), please join me in welcoming Dave, and do take a moment to check out his new TechNet blog and read his thoughts on this new beginning!
