Episode notes

I was in the PowerShell tech community for like more than a year and I saw a lot of blog posts and people sharing their knowledge there. Why not just share all the things that I encountered so that I actually referred to my website instead of just lurking other people's websites. So yeah, that was my main reason, just knowledge sharing because giving back to the community is even better than just only taking. And have you been in the position where you're looking for an answer to something and you find your own blog? I do, Google sometimes and then I see my own blog, okay, not quite so I don't know what I've known it, but yeah, it happens. Most

We had a cool chat with Harm Veenstra, the guy behind powershellisfun.com. We got into some neat PowerShell stuff like Out-ConsoleGridView and the -PassThru parameter. Harm also gave us the lowdown on when to quit the cloud and spilled the beans on running his blog. Plus, he shared how he keeps up with the quick mojo of the tech world. Tune in for a fun and laid-back tech talk!

Harm Veenstra is a seasoned Microsoft Consultant with an affinity for everything tech. Since beginning his career in 1996 at a Helpdesk, he's traversed through various specialties, including Citrix, VMware, Storage, and Networking, eventually finding his passion in PowerShell and Microsoft Intune. An ardent tech enthusiast, his hardware and software knowledge spectrum saw an expansion as he navigated from batch to cmd to being a proponent of PowerShell since its second version. Alongside his impressive professional journey, Veenstra is a proud father of two teenagers, a soccer fan, and a high BPM house music aficionado. His keenness for all things Microsoft led him to start a blog site last year, which became quickly popular among tech devotees.
