14 years at Microsoft

My first post for a very long time, as I have been recovering from surgery.

Today is the anniversary of when I started my career at Microsoft - 14 years!

As I said last year, I've been really lucky, as I have done lots of different things, been exposed to different parts of the business, and seen it from different parts of the world. I have been very fortunate to work with some amazing people within Microsoft, as well as some outstanding organisations & people outside of Microsoft.

Quicky chronology:

May 1991 Sep 1993 Microsoft Canberra, working as a Systems Engineer
Sep 1993 Aug 1994 Microsoft Corp, @ Executive Briefing Center
Aug 1994 Oct 1995 Microsoft Corp, in the Advanced Technology Group, working on Interactive TV
Nov 1995 May 1997 Microsoft Australia, MSN Technical Director
Jun 1997 Jun 1999 ninemsn CTO
Jun 1999 May 2001 Microsoft Region, Digital Media dude
May 2001 now Microsoft Australia, Developer & Platform Evangelism

If you want more details, you can look here, as well as stuff said in the press.

    In this day and age, it is amazing to hear that a person has worked in a company like Microsoft for a long time. I'm glad you have been able to do some of the things that you have mentioned above.
    I wonder whether you got into Microsoft and developed interest in what they do or was it the other way around, where you knew exactly what you wanted to do and joined Microsoft to achieve the same?

    Some folks ask me why I am still at Microsoft. After 14
    years, surely they think I must be lacking...
