A member of the Danish Arrow Blogger Board – Updated with Video

Wow, I’ve been selected as one of the top bloggers in Denmark, along with quite a lot of my own technical heroes in Denmark. Namely the Arrow ECS Blogger Board.

I’m very honored to be considered one of the bloggers that gives information back to the community,  even though my blog posts aren’t often that technical as the rest of this blogger board. All 6 of the selected people are also designated vExperts, so its a really nice selection of people.

The board consist of people like Mads Fog Albrechtlund, one of Denmark’s leading VRO/VRA specialists, who works at Proact. Michael Ryom also works at Proact as an ESXi and vRealize specialist.

There’s also the Party Duo Frank Brix and Rasmus Haslund, who works for Cohesity and Veeam, and the last member at the moment is Robert Jensen from VMware Denmark, who is the one of the new vExperts from Denmark in 2016.

So I expect that this board of bloggers will post quite a few posts about VMware and virtualization in general. Today Frank Brix and myself was interviewed by Liselotte Foverskov from Arrow about our careers and community and VMware in general.

Update: here with a link to the video in danish though
