http://cro.mscommunity.net is central site for all 8 Croatian User Groups and it is community effort that brought not just announcements, news, blogs, forums, but also wiki and video on-line!

Dobrisa Adamec (Project Leader), Marin Mamic (MS Community Champ) and I were presenting Community and new portal to the press this Friday on the last day of the WinDays 2008 conference.

2008 MVP Global Summit - I have been there ...

... and I SURVIVED!
(to paraphrase the sentence from the Microsoft Museum: "I built Microsoft and I survived!")

Four (4) WHOLE days of sessions, events, meetings and PARTIEEEEES!

Of course I cannot tell what we are speaking about (not yet!) but I can tell that Microsoft is preparing great new software, platform and tools for us who are enjoying using it!
Beside my MVP Award (Windows Mobile Architect) I am also Microsoft Regional Director, and I must say thank you to Kevin to provide us opportunity to get attention from the people that are benefiting most from our evengalism – Microsoft people – Product Group Leaders, Architects, Managers etc.
Thank you Kevin!

I will end with picture of Croatian MVP’s with our MVP Lead Anka:
