I started reading The Morning Brew a week ago – I think I heard it noted on Scott Hanselman’s site.
I just wanted to send you a note to let you know how fantastic I think this is as a resource. I absolutely love what you’re doing, and have suggested to all my colleagues that they take a look.
Best regards and happy new year,
Remi.
