Woo hoo! New Oracle ACE Directors

Yup, I am one of them!

Thanks to Kris Rice (@krisrice) at Oracle for submitting my nomination.

Still getting used to the new “networked” world. I actually saw the announcement of my promotion on Facebook (on my new smart phone) which was a feed from Twitter, before I saw the official email in my inbox.

Weird.

Six degrees of separation from what????

Here’s the Tweet:

Oracle ACE Program @oracleace Two more promotions to #ACED: Kent Graziano-@KentGraziano and Tingkun Yang. Congratulations!! 12:42 AM – 23 Jun 12 via TweetDeck

Also promoted today is my good buddy from Denver, Tim Gorman (@timothyjgorman). Tim is one of the best Oracle DBAs I know, a published author, great presenter/teacher, and is the current President of the Rocky Mountain Oracle Users Group (RMOUG).  He will be presenting a few session at KScope12 this comming week along with me and a bunch of other Oracle ACE and ACE Directors.

Congrats to all the newly minted ACE Directors!

Anyway, this was a good way to end the work week and start the weekend.

Cheers.

Kent

P.S. Stay tuned as I will be blogging and posting pictures from KScope12 in San Antonio starting Sunday (using WordPress on my smart phone, I hope!).
