My MCP Virtual Business Card

When I first got my MCP cert, back in 2005 i was happy by the way Microsoft has sent welcome kits which came with cool plastic wallet cards. Don't have much use though but still is a cool card to have. Unfortunately I lost it and i found to my dismay that they no longer send these stuff anymore.

Thanks to the "Go Green" initiative of microsoft, they scrapped sending welcome kits and wallet cards for all MCP's who get their certifications after June 2009. And this virtual business card is what they replaced it with:

So Sad.....

And they also threw a free profile page for free to make me smile found below

faceyourmanga.com – create your own avatars!

This is my avatar for YM, twitter, and MSN . Here you go:

And this is the story......I saw Benely Jr (BJ for short, my old time friend, brother of my best friend lannie) online at YM this morning or was it last night, hmm.. i forgot really. Anyway he has this very cool avatar he had on his YM, and he told me he created it at www.faceyourmanga.com. And here i go created my own, i don't know if it looks like me, but this is the closest way i can describe myself using their ready made flash templates of the whole face.

Anyway i look cool on it and i bet you can do the same thing with your avatar. Give it a try
