CRM 3.0 early adopter program

Microsoft CRM 3.0 will soon be released. Before this release there are some early adopter projects. Microsoft has selected 20 partners for this program and Avanade is one of them! Avanade Netherlands will do this early adopter project together with Bouwfonds. I'm looking forward doing this project a lot.

Too bad we are not allowed to say much, but I will post some interesting discoveries regarding 3.0 soon.

Stay tuned!

Enjoy the summer

Time for some Cme! Last week I've been doing some kind of a euro trip together with one of my friends Ed. Within 8 days we have visited:
- Germany
- Austria
- Slovenia
- Croatia
- Italy
- Swiss
- France
- Belgium
- And ofcourse The Netherlands...

The main goal of the holidays was to visit another friend, Walter. He's a travelguide in Croatia this summerholiday. Let's show you some picture we have made. You can click them to view them a bit better. Not too good though, because I don't want to scare you off :)

This is our fellowship of the holidays. Left is Walter, Ed is in the middle and that makes me on the right side:


And our tent:


Believe it or not, we even have made food ourselves on this camping!


During our stay there we have visited some of the ATP tournament matches. One of the players we have spotted is Moya:


After Croatia we have been searching for Mickey. And where can you do that better then in Euro Disney Paris:


Last but not least, watch this one:


As you can see, I have been doing a lot. I hope you have had a wonderful time as well!
