Why did I start a blog?
It is probably bad etiquette to start a blog with a rant, but here goes
<rant>
Why are there so few blogs about SQL Server?!?!? Other than Microsoft employees and a few other well-connected people, I could find very little blogging about SQL Server on the big wide internet.
I actually went looking for a new source of SQL Server knowledge in the form of blogs, a good RSS reader, and the informal community of SQL Server developers/DBAs. I would never have been so pretentious as to think, "Gee, I should start a blog on SQL Server!" But with so little published work out there, I was compelled to create some work in this space.
If I have missed something and/or I AM being pretentious, someone please tell me!
</rant>
Future posts will include work that I'm doing at customer sites, research into SQL Server 2005, my presentations from the local SQL Server SIG, and anything else I think might be interesting to the SQL Server community. Please feel free to give me feedback on the things I write. I am a firm believer that debate is healthy, and I love to learn from others.

Thanks for the blog, Jon. I found it via the Central Ohio SQL Server Special Interest Group. I appreciate reading about your real-world SQL2k5 experiences, since I will be there soon myself. Keep up the good work!
