Ask a Question, Win a T-Shirt

We're rewarding great questions on IT Knowledge Exchange by giving
away ten t-shirts to good questions asked in the community over the
next 30 days. All you have to do is submit a well-thought-out,
well-written (and hopefully well-tagged) question to the IT Knowledge
Exchange community, and we'll choose our favorites in time to
announce in our newsletter on Tuesday, February 10th.

You can view the blog post here with more information:

Featured IT Blog

This week's featured IT blog is "You had me at EHLO": the Microsoft
Exchange Team blog. Yes, it is the official blog of the Microsoft
Exchange Team, and as one would expect, it is chock-full of useful
information about Exchange Server and its related products. One
feature runs in its favor: true to its title, it really is written by
a "team" of Exchange professionals, all in very different roles, who
can lend many different points of view and areas of expertise.
