Is it really 5 years? wow.

I remember predicting early on that Channel 9 would be closed down within the year. Turns out Microsoft's management are a lot cooler than anyone expected them to be Smiley

Just watched the video : you owe Disney now !

Happy birthday guys, you are doing a great job.

I agree that Brian Beckman videos are always great. Erik Meijer, Don Syme, Jeffry Snover, and you guys (Chris and Don) are also at teh top of my list of videos to watch.

Really looking forward to some more Oslo, F# and IronPython.

Thanks!

Welcome Change
The Erica reference is a bit of historic trivia that may or may not be directly related to Channel 9. We leave it to the viewer to put the pieces together! Smiley You will learn more about the C9 team over the coming weeks and months. Today, it's about YOU.

Happy Birthday, Niners!!
