Today is the final day of the Office smart client ascend training that took me to almost 10 cities in Europe. I want to thank everybody involved organizing all of this. Special thanks to Agnes (our office manager at U2U) for arranging all these flights and hotels. Here at U2U we start to look like a travel agency these days and we would not be able to cope with all of this without her help.

Anyway, will I be more in Belgium the next months? I am afraid not. I am starting another EMEA tour within three weeks. This one is on the Microsoft Portals technologies and targets technical sales and project managers. It will be bring me to places like Zürich, Moskow, Hungary and yes South-Africa. I know there are some SA-bloggers like Arno who are doing a very nice job in the community. Hopefully we can have a get-together and meet each other face to face.
