Hello Pinal,

Congracts for being MVP… I know you deserve much more than what you got.

A question, what does it takes to become an MVP, because I saw group picture and I see most of you are very young like below 30. So just curious to know… how does Microsoft select its MVP’s and how does it identifies this talented people and their work.

What do I have to do to become a MVP. How much time does it takes to become an MVP.

I know Vijay ( Don’t know his exact name, just guessing. SQLArticles.com ) … I read his resume… seems he has just 2 years of SQL Server EXP and he is now SQL Server MVP, Wow..

Can you please guide all of us for the same.

Thanks.
Imran.
