John Bristowe crosses over to the dark side

Just found out my buddy John Bristowe (of Quadrus here in Calgary) has now joined the Microsoft Canada team as the Western Canada Developer Evangelist! Nice job John and well deserved. John had been the Regional Director for Microsoft out here in Cowtown (non-Microsoft employee, MVP type thing) and he's also the ASP.NET MVP. Now that he's a blue badge, he won't be able to continue with his MVP status but that's cool since he's there for us development types to call on (along with Dan Sellers). You can visit John's blog here (which will probably be moving to blogs.msdn.com), which strangely enough doesn't have a post on this yet (I found out via Mark Relph's blog on the subject). Again, congrats John!
