[Misc] I've (me also) been tagged

Simon has decided to tag me so I need to find 5 things that you don't know about me. Here they are:

• I'm currently in internship at Microsoft France. I'm a Pre-Sales Engineer Intern in the IW (Information Worker) team. Last year, I was a "SUPINFO Certified Trainer" and I taught .NET and Internet technologies to SUPINFO Students.
• After passing my "baccalauréat", I've spent 2 years at the University where the only thing I've learnt was how to use Linux (yes, I know: it's bad to not follow the courses....). Before these 2 years, I've never used Linux but after "gcc", "./configure", "make" and "make install" were my favorite commands
• I've discovered .NET in 2002 when I was in "BTS" (a technical diploma that need generally 2 years to be prepared). My professor (who owns an IT Company) preferred .NET to Java (maybe because he started .NET projects in his company ) so he decided to teach .NET instead of Java. Before that, the only programming language I've used was PHP (and a little of C/C++). Since 2002, I'm learning and training myself on new technologies like WPF, C# 3 / Linq, MOSS 2007, etc... I'm a ".NET Addict" and I like discovering the new technologies
• I like doing presentations and training ! I know that I'm probably not the best but I improve myself every time I need to speak during a conference or a training. I like to explain how the things works, writing articles (even if, currently, I've not the time), etc....
• I'm a complete beginner in VB.NET (the only thing I know is how to declare a variable): since I've started to develop with .NET, the only language I've used is C#.

Well, now I'll tag 5 persons too: Nicolas Sorel (aka Nix), Pierre Lagarde, my colleague Nay-Young Kwon, Renaud Comte (it seems he has not been tagged yet) and finally my friend Florent Santin (aka Azra)

Bye
