I'm with Steve in wondering why it took so long to blog it (although I suspect I know). My only worry know is who am I going to bug about best programming practices? Congratulations.

Both were great opportunities too and I'd have been happy in any of the roles but the lure of writing production code on something as new and cool as LINQ to SQL plus the ability to do some evangelism on it too tipped it.
