There are two reasons why I went ahead and deleted my other blogs today.  The first is that I finally came to grips with the reality that managing three blogs is not very realistic.  That was probably evident by the fact that each of those blogs had about 2 postings.  So I'll be adding some new blog posts in my good old SOA focused blog that have maybe some out of bounds topics (like support, debuggin, and SQL BI).

The second reason for consolidating my other blogs is that I'm finding that the technology gods, in their infinite wisdom, have carved out a path for me in my new role at Microsoft that leads to SOA.  Three areas I've been spending a lot of time on the last two months are WCF, BizTalk and the Managed Services Engine (codeplex.com/servicesengine).  You may have noticed this in the form of some more technical postings on WCF and BizTalk recently.  Well that's only the beginning.  I have quite a few more active support cases where I'm learning really interesting stuff and I'm about to head out to Seattle for 10 days of training.  Half of that training will be on all of our SOA related bits from the SOA Solutions team.  Needless to say I'm really stoked.

Expect to see a lot of posts coming from me in the near future about all this stuff I'm working on.  I know I've said this before but I'm now focused and very excited because of the technology area I'm beginning to venture into.  Mr. SOAPitStop is back baby!!!!
