Just used http://twilk.com to put my friends' faces on my Twitter background. Check it out!

The name Twilk is a combination of Twitter and milk. Milk has nothing to do with the service other than the creator of Twilk really likes milk. It helps that the domain name is short, and was available.

How are people arranged on the background?

People are sorted by how much you mention their user name ( @ replies, retweets, etc ) in your Twitter feed. It goes from top to bottom starting in the first two columns on the left. If you mention people the same amount (or not at all), the order of those people will be random.

This cool video was taken at the French VMware User Group meeting last Thursday. It shows VMware's bare metal view (client) hypervisor running on a laptop.

VMware vSphere: Troubleshooting

This lab-intensive course focuses on providing system administrators with the advanced knowledge, skills, and abilities to achieve competence in troubleshooting the VMware vSphere™ virtual infrastructure. In this course, you will spend most of the time diagnosing and rectifying configuration problems created on VMware® ESX™/ESXi hosts and VMware vCenter™ Server systems.

Op woensdag 2 december 2009 organiseert Azlan een GRATIS informatiesessie over VMware View 4!
Ton Hermes, System Engineer bij VMware zal u dan op de hoogte brengen van alle ins en outs

Wat is VMware View 4?

VMware View 4 is de nieuwste geïntegreerde desktop-virtualisatie-oplossing, waardoor kosten voor destops gereduceerd worden, hoge mate van beveiliging geboden wordt en desktop beheer enorm vereenvoudigd!

VMware View 4 maakt gebruik van de nieuwste versie van vSphere, waardoor de meest recente virtualisatie technologieën benut worden. Een voorbeeld is PCoIP, een nieuw protocol voor desktops, wat specifiek ontwikkelt is voor het leveren van virtuele desktops over het WAN of LAN.

Dit biedt een enorme optimalisatieslag voor de beschikbare bandbreedte zonder het verlies van de gebruikersproductiviteit.

I’m John Mark Troyer. I manage the social media and blogging programs for VMware, an enterprise software company. Over the last few years, my colleagues and I, collaborating with the great people of our community, have created a set of successful social media experiences. These programs have benefited the participants, have increased the overall success of our customers and partners, and have been invaluable for VMware. In this blog, I am sharing some of our Social Media Stories from our past as well as how we’re still learning and having fun as we go forward.

The Dutch VMUG conference will take place at the Nieuwegein Business Center. On the 11th of December over 600 enthusiastic Vmug members will enjoy a day full of virtualization. For the fifth year in succession you can attend a lot of really technical sessions. So if you are living near or in the Netherlands, you don’t want to miss out on this event. The final agenda with 3 parallel tracks is online.

My session “Managing VMware vSphere 4 with the Virtualization EcoShell - Eric Sloof and Scott Herold” is scheduled in the Front Grand Hall at 10:50. Be There !!!
