Ninth the in the Twelve Podcasts of Christmas 2008!
In March 2008, Microsoft’s “2008” wave of product launches took place in Birmingham. It was a great opportunity to grab some podcasts with Microsoft Executives and many of their DPEs. In this podcast, co-hosted by Andy Westgarth, we’re chatting to Microsoft Collaboration Evangelist Viral Tarpara. Viral is open and honest, giving us an insight into what he does for Microsoft and the importance of Community within a large corporation. Watch out for Viral’s “good save” when making reference to major search engines near the end of this recording!
Photos of the event can be found here.
