Congrats to Microsoft on getting Jon Udell on the books:

"My official title will be Evangelist, and I'll report to Jeff Sandquist. He's the leader of the team that creates Channel 9 and Channel 10, websites that feature blogs, videos, screencasts, and podcasts for Microsoft-oriented developers."

A very smart move for them. Jon is great at what he does, and is exactly the type they need. He tells it as it is, really gets into things before making his mind up, and is trustworthy.

Kudos to Jon on the new job.
