4 Years Later – The 300,000th Visitor

Who would have thought back in September of 2008 when I started this blog on a whim that I would still be here 4 years later. Time sure does fly when your having fun.

It’s also pleasing to note that people actually spend time to read the posts that I have written over the years. With humble beginnings starting out as a means to reflect on my ICT journey it has grown to become a website I take serious pride in. None of this would have happened without you the readers. So to help celebrate 4 years of blogging and the 300,000th visitor to the site I want to give away a few prizes.

Many of your posts feature largely in the thinking of myself and my colleagues as we attempt to launch this.
    Cheers!!
