A couple few weeks ago I decided to take things a little more serious and get some Microsoft certifications out of the way.  I deal a lot with SBS environments so I took the Microsoft 70-653 TS: Windows SBS 2008, Configuring Exam first.  So I'm officially a Microsoft Certified Professional, and have my first Technology Specialist certificate.  By passing this exam and becoming a Microsoft Partner, I'm also officially a Microsoft Small Business Specialist.    I think the only perk is that I get to use these logos?

Next on my agenda is to tackle the three tests needed for my MCITP.  Each of the three tests are scheduled to happen within the next 8 weeks.   Wish me luck!
