I’m thrilled to announced I’m starting in a new job at Microsoft Corporation, in Redmond! I’ll be working together with my good friend Clemens Vasters on the Windows Azure AppFabric team.
Will be working on a brand new technology for Windows Azure AppFabric that is meant to seamlessly interconnect and bridge between IIOP, RMI, CORBA, COM+, XMPP RPC, XML RPC, ‘Facebook-style REST Service’ and Web Services.
Clemens is the Principal Technical Lead for Service Bus and I will additionally be working together with Justin Smith who’s a Senior Program Manager for Access Control.
Some of you might remember back when I meet Steve Ballmer here in Oslo during MSDN Live last year? Since then I have been in talks with Microsoft in Redmond and the result is what I’ve announced today. Here is the photo from last year (I’m number two from the left-back):
Do you want to work for Microsoft?
Then make sure you attend MSDN Live (Norway) this April for some kick-ass presentations and learn more about Visual Studio 2010, SharePoint 2010, Windows Azure, Team Foundation Server 2010, Windows Identity Foundation, Silverlight 4 and more! With these skills you’ll be better fit to deliver successful projects and deliver the business value that your customers expect!

It’s been very long discussions with Microsoft over the last year, I’m very tired but also happy. It’s time for me to relax and enjoy the Easter!
