This Wednesday (October 21st, 2009), I’ll be in Bucharest, attending the Agora Technology Conferences – Green IT session, where I’ve been invited as a speaker. So, if you’re in the area, you’re free and you’re interested in the topic, you might consider attending.
LATER EDIT: Here’s the full presentation (I used a shorter version during the event itself):
LATER EDIT 2: Here’s some pictures and videos from the event.
On Wednesday (October 14th, 11:00am Romanian time), I’ll be holding I held an online webcast on Enterprise virtualization. I will be discussing I have discussed the main differences between the current virtualization platforms (Hyper-V R2, ESX(i)/vSphere, XenServer & Virtuozzo/OpenVZ), and I’ll be going I went a bit in depth on System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 and it’s newest features.
See you there! 
UPDATE: Here’s the presentation:
RECORDING HERE (the recording should be available roughly 24 hours after the broadcast)
Today, I found out I was chosen to be a part of the Microsoft MVP program, as a technical expert on virtualization. The official announcement did not include any names, since those are not made public – unless we choose to publicly post it in our blogs (which I’m now doing) and/or create my MVP profile (that’s still a work in progress).
I’ve also got an electronic MVP Executive Recognition Letter along with the welcome email, and I should also be receiving my MVP Award Kit via courier during the next few days.
Other than that, the MVP program comes with quite a few perks. But until I finish signing the NDA and making sure I’m fully aware of what I can and cannot do while in this program, I’m just gonna keep it at that.
This Wednesday (09.09.09) at 10am EEST, I’ll be the main speaker in a Virtualization Security live webcast held by Microsoft Romania.
I will be talking about the new security challenges that virtualization brings along, and also about the security enhancements that virtualization solutions can provide to the existing IT infrastructure.
Note that the webcast will be in Romanian. Without further ado, here’s the registration link. 
See you there!
UPDATE: Here’s the presentation:
सद्भिस्तु लीलया प्रोक्तं शिलालिखितमक्षरम्।
असद्भिः शपथेनोक्तं जले लिखितम् अक्षरम्॥
sadbhistu līlayā proktaṁ śilālikhitamakṣaram |
asadbhiḥ śapathenoktaṁ jale likhitam akṣaram ||
Even the casual words of good people are like words set in stone,
[while] even the vows of the bad people are like words written on water!
Yup, a new event! This time, it’s about Virtualization, and mostly how it will affect the world of IT. We’ll talk about current trends and technologies, and it’s definitely going to be a blast, since we have the main content coming from two very interesting people: Stas Sushkov (member of the Free Software Group) and Adi Stoian (MVP on Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager)
The event will take place on Saturday, May 30th, at Brinel in Cluj-Napoca. We’ll also have some Microsoft giveaways for the people who register.

Yes. I’m 25 today, and I’m shamelessly wishing myself “Happy Birthday!” on my blog…
No, I don’t have any birthday resolutions. No amazing, well conceived plans to change my life around “starting today”. No important decisions to take that would greatly impact my existence. And no regrets. It’s a day like any other, and as long as I feel right doing whatever I’m doing, every day will continue to be a change for the better.
Plus, it’s sunny outside. So there’s really no reason not to be happy!
