So, tomorrow marks one year since I started blogging here on SQL Server 365 and what a year it has been.  I can honestly say that I have taken a great deal away from this experience which has been so rewarding, the  only disappointment I have is that I didn't start blogging earlier.

I set out with the goal of blogging something I had learned about SQL Server every day for a year which I soon found out was a little too optimistic.  I do however still feel very satisfied with what I have achieved and happy that people have taken something away from my posts so far.  After all the main reason for me starting  the blog was to give something back to the fantastic SQL Community which has given me so much over the years.  You really are fantastic!

So here you go the SQL Server 365 First Year In Numbers!

I have some great ideas for next year and among other posts plan to do a series on Indexing, share a maintenance routine I've been working on and provide a plethora of scripts on Mirroring, Snapshots to name a few.  I will even be delving into the world of Powershell and how it helps ease the pain of a fail-over in the event of invoking DR!

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

Happy New Year!
