I was just “asked” on My.MSN if I would like to subscribe to;

Drag to move this module.
Then for some unknown reason (or lack of reason) I clicked “yes”!

Been blogging for four years now

This is the first post that came on to My.MSN, so it’s Robert Scoble’s Blogday, he’s been blogging four years today! Drop a comment on his blog when you have the time, thank him for his efforts of trying to make sense out of all this software and hardware that keeps popping up everywhere.

Matchmaker

Microsoft Matchmaker, a service designed to create partnerships between Microsoft resellers and Learning Solutions partners has gone live. It had been launched as a pilot program back in September 2004.

Matchmaker is designed to boost customer use of training vouchers provided with Microsoft Software Assurance (SA), a maintenance program for volume licensees, by directly linking resellers, who offer the program, to Leaning Solutions partners, who are authorized to redeem the vouchers and provide training on Microsoft software.

I’ve already signed my company up, were always learning something new. Last year I could have bought a car with all the money I spent on Software Assurance, maybe Matchmaker will help us link-up with other Microsoft Partners who can help us get more value for our SA $$$.
