10000 DTrace webcast downloads!

Time for some gloating about the popularity of DTrace and a bit of joy about a personal milestone. For most of last year I've been evangelizing the capabilities of Solaris 10 Dynamic tracing technology DTrace, among Sun's partner community. Most of the effort has gone into in person presentations, which has been by far the most rewarding. Just to see the amazement on peoples faces when the realize the power of the tool is worth every second of effort that goes into these presentations. But with three kids at home, traveling can be very disruptive. So I've been trying to use technology to advance the cause. We did webcasts and Hands on Lab and gave the presentation material to other able presenters. The webcasts and Hands on Labs are freely available on the net. Last week we reached an exciting milestone. Over 10,000 (yes 4 zeros) people have downloaded and viewed the webcast. If you have viewed the Webcast I'd like to hear from you.Email me at angelo dot rajadurai at sun dot com. Let me know if you liked it. What types of other material would you like to see on DTrace?
