I started keeping notes on things I used a lot, or that took care of a difficult problem. On looking for something I couldn't remember how to do, and spending 30 minutes going through notes and SSIS projects, I decided to create this blog. Lots of SQL, BI, Web, Winforms, Spotifre, R, Python and whatever I happen to be working in when I decide to post something I find interesting.
