&lt;P&gt;(hmmm....that kinda sounds like the beginning of one of those SPAM emails)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I wanted to let you all know I am moving on from Microsoft and shall no longer be blogging here.&amp;nbsp; I'll be moving an archive of these posts to my website &lt;A href="http://www.greenitstrategy.com/"&gt;http://www.greenitstrategy.com&lt;/A&gt; and shall continue blogging there on Green IT.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So what will I be doing now?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Well, I have decided to take some time off, write a book and maybe look into starting my own business.&amp;nbsp; Regardless, you can always catch me through &lt;A title="Green IT Strategy" href="http://www.greenitstrategy.com/" mce_href="http://www.greenitstrategy.com"&gt;my website&lt;/A&gt; and please do feel free to visit me there.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you to everyone who contacted me with their Green IT questions over the past two years and gave me feedback.&amp;nbsp; I really appreciate your support and good luck with your own Green IT initiatives.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Kind Regards,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Bianca AKA Little Miss Enviro Geek&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.technet.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3281830" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category

is currently running a competition called Ingenuity Point for the latest and greatest 'Clean Technology' (&lt;A href="https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/default.aspx" mce_href="https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/default.aspx"&gt;https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/default.aspx&lt;/A&gt;).&lt;/DIV&gt;
&lt;DIV&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/DIV&gt;
&lt;DIV&gt;If you know of ISVs who have created Green Technologies, I'd encourage you to invite them to participate - it will be worth winning&amp;nbsp;as the Gold winner takes out:&lt;/DIV&gt;
&lt;OL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;25-50K in prize money 
&lt;LI&gt;a video documentary 
&lt;LI&gt;a written feature story 
&lt;LI&gt;marketing exposure 
&lt;LI&gt;$375 AMEX gift vouchers&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Nice!!!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;December's winner was OSIsoft - who work with a lot of energy and water companies to help them monitor water and energy use.&amp;nbsp; One of the ways this is presented is through a SharePoint portal - cool stuff.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Also checkout the latest nominations and VOTE for your favourite - &lt;A href="https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/Gallery.aspx?Value=Qqw1eb%252fKwptfsoQEiLA8PEYDbUIFJSDahB7%252fbPVDcf8%253d" mce_href="https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/Gallery.aspx?Value=Qqw1eb%252fKwptfsoQEiLA8PEYDbUIFJSDahB7%252fbPVDcf8%253d"&gt;https://www.theingenuitypoint.com/main/Gallery.aspx?Value=Qqw1eb%252fKwptfsoQEiLA8PEYDbUIFJSDahB7%252fbPVDcf8%253d&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp; The monthly People's Choice winner receive $375 AMEX vouchers.&lt;/P&gt;
