VMware Cares

As I alluded to yesterday, I am changing roles here at VMware. I am thrilled to have been chosen to fill a brand new role of Social Media Specialist.

I’ll be the eyes & ears for VMware in the social networking world, assisting where I can in getting the information you need in your hands. It’s less of a technical role (I will not be working your tech support cases online!), but if I know of a self-help resource for you, I’ll send you the link.
