There is even an aggregator for Sun alumni. Read interesting tidbits over past 3 years in Linda's (engineering program manager for BSC) blog. A complete collection of wishes can be viewed here.

Here is a partial list of ways I've benefited from this personal space:

  1. This personal space provides yet another opportunity to communicate effectively with our users.
  2. It's because of this personal space, we are able to establish community around GlassFish.
  3. It's because of liberty to write about anything on this personal space, I've been able to share my running and photography stories with people I've never known.
  4. It's because of this personal space, I got numerous wishes before my first marathon and completed it successfully.
  5. It's because of this personal space, a 10-year old friend contacted me yesterday.

The list can go on. This blog is, now, a significant part of my identity :)

Happy third irthday blogs.sun.com, and congratulations to BSC engineering team!
