So, the end of 2013 is upon us and what a year it has been. The SQL Server 365 blog saw the number of site hits double from last year, which I am thrilled with. The biggest personal achievement this year was popping my speaking cherry at the Leeds SQL Server User Group, on top of that I also spoke at the inaugural Newcastle SQL Server User Group, many thanks to Chris Taylor for having me. If that wasn't enough I was also honored to have spoken at the Manchester leg of SQL Relay R2, taking my tally to 3 appearances, 2 user groups and 1 conference! I also attended my first virtual chapter, seeing as most of these are US time it works perfectly for me as they are around 18:00 or 19:00 UK time. These are definitely worth a look, some fantastic content that can be attended from anywhere, check out the PASS site for more details.
So here is SQL Server 365 in numbers.

In 2014 I want to get even more involved in our fantastic SQL Server community, I have a couple of ideas for some collaboration and networking, which I want to get the ball rolling with early in the new year. As for the blog I will continue to post as often as I can, I already have a backlog of about 5 posts to keep me busy.
If there is anything you would like me to to do a post on or would like to do a guest post then please get in touch and we can arrange it! ckwmcgowan@gmail.com or @ckwmcgowan.
Thank you to the entire SQL Server community worldwide for their continuing support and general awesomeness, keep it up and hears to a prosperous 2014.
Happy New Year!
Chris
