Geek Girl Blogger - Susan Bradley

A note from Tim: Susan Bradley AKA the “SBS Diva”, has been an amazing help to our business with her awesome willingness to assist every time I have had a question about SBS 2003. She has provided information, links to help pages and forums, hot fixes and even posted me a SBS 2003 Best Practices book for free. She well and truly deserves the MPV recognition from Microsoft for her contribution to the SBS community. We’re excited to present her profile today.

Name: Susan Bradley.
Screen Name: Susan (boring, I know). Also known as the SBS Diva.
Personal Blog: www.msmvps.com/blogs/bradley
susan_bradleySocial Networks: While I am part of www.linkedin.com and www.facebook.com there are still times that I go, do I really call some of these folks friends?  Social networks have to build off the social part first and foremost.  Twitter is one that I watch other twitterers but my "fake" twitter is actually run by Vlad Mazek (www.vladville.com).  He actually twitters better than I would -- check out www.twitter.com/susanbradley

What is your reason/motivation for blogging?

I mainly write things that I find entertaining and, somewhat surprisingly to me, others seem to find what I write entertaining as well.  So now my motivation is writing to entertain & build community, as well as because I just like to write.  Oh yes, and to win friends and influence people.

What is your motivation for blogging?

Originally I started blogging to document problems I’d solved so when I came across it again I’d know how to fix it. As time went on we found our clients, friends, family etc, were reading our blog to see what we were up to. I also use it to document things I’ve done so I can look back and see what we’ve achieved.
