Thom Robbins moving to Redmond and taking on a new position

Thom Robbins the Developer Evangelist for the New England area is moving to Redmond and taking a new position with the Platform Marketing group. You can read all about it here.

You are probably wondering why am I posting this. Well, Thom was the original owner of the GotSpeech.Net domain name. He wasn't actively using the domain and was gracious enough to transfer the domain name to me. If he hadn't done that there is no telling what this site would be called. Brandon and I kicked around a lot of names before deciding that we liked GotSpeech.NET but a search showed that it was already taken. For some reason Brandon decided to email Thom and ask for the domain name. The rest is history.

Thom, from all of us at GotSpeech - congratulations! We hope you enjoy your new job and the move to Redmond.

Thom was also one of the primary movers behind the Speech Server days.  He helped us secure the Microsoft briefing centers and get the events catered.  Pizza and soda, the developers food of choice, was provided at each event.

New England is going to miss Thom Robbins.  Best wishes.
