The year 2012 was the most interesting year. If I start listing what was special about this year – I think it will take me 2-3 days to just write a blog post about this subject. Let me pick few things which I would like to specifically call out.

Events:
I have attended nearly 30 various events in the year 2012. If you ask me to profile the events there are no two events which can be compared – some events were small some were huge, some events were in Indian Subcontinent and some were outside Asia. Overall – I had a blast with the community. However, there are two distinct events I would like to mention here.
SQL PASS 2012
This is the biggest event for any SQL Server Professional. I had a fantastic time in book signing as well releasing our new books.
TechEd India 2012
This is the biggest event for any technologist of India. I had a great time meeting the local community and share some SQL Love. My whole family is attending this event for last 4 years and we have continued the tradition.
Well, I guess this is it for this year – see you next year (tomorrow)!
