Why I have not been writing any new posts...
As much as I love writing the SYSK posts, the reality is that it takes a lot of time... For the last couple of months, I've been working 14+ hour days consistently... To make the matters worse, I've learned that this type of activity doesn't even result in a "pat on the back" as, given my role and responsibilities, I'm expected to do this kind of work (and other type of knowledge transfer, mentoring, etc.) internally within Microsoft...
Bottom line -- the bloging I do here comes out of my personal time, and, with 70+ hour work weeks, there is not much personal time left...
This does not mean that I will not be posting any more... I just need to get to a more sane work schedule... So, hang on... keep checking... I will be back!

Hi Irena, Till May 2007, we all have been reading average 22 post per month. Now all of us are very addicted, so I would request you to post atleast 4 posts per month. Thousands of people are your fan, and I am first in the queue. However, I belives you need your relaxation, or some other activities like sketching, Yoga, singing, dancing, go for vacation, etc. So, Have a great time, (if you can spare some;) Regards, Vishalgiri GoswamiAnonymous
