Microsoft Scripting Guy Ed Wilson here. Today I have an exciting announcement! Drum roll please: dadadadadadada…CLING! Yes, for the first time ever, we now have official Honorary Scripting Guys! Yes, that’s right. What does it take to become an official Honorary Scripting Guy? It takes an extreme commitment to the scripting community, a remarkable dedication helping to spread the good word about Windows PowerShell, and a relentless pursuit of excellence in producing exceptional content. The first five Honorary Scripting Guys are (in no particular order):

  • Sean Kearney
  • James Brundage
  • Don Jones
  • Tome Tanasovski
  • Trevor Sullivan

Let me tell you a little bit about each of these scripting stalwarts. We will begin at the top of the list, and work our way down. Or to put it another way, we will begin with Sean and conclude with Trevor.

 

Sean Kearney

Sean Kearney is our most prolific guest blogger. Check out his guest blog posts.

Sean Kearney is an infrastructure support analyst and Microsoft MVP in Windows PowerShell. He is absolutely passionate about automation technologies, especially Windows PowerShell. If you say, “PowerShell,” he may just break into song. Sean considers himself “just a tech at heart,” but he often can be found dabbling with most Microsoft technologies. We have been advised that any rumors about him ever singing for the Microsoft JobsBlog are completely unfounded. Complete rubbish. Let’s just keep it between us, okay?

James Brundage has contributed several guest blog posts.

James is the founder of Start-Automating, a company dedicated to saving people time and money by helping them automate. Start-Automating offers Windows PowerShell training and custom Windows PowerShell and .NET Framework development. James formerly worked on the Windows PowerShell team at Microsoft. You can follow James on Twitter (@jamesbru) or on the Start-Automating company blog.

Trevor is a passionate, experienced, and Microsoft-certified IT pro with more than seven years in the industry. Although he is interested in nearly all Microsoft technologies, his primary specialties include:

  • Design, implementation, and troubleshooting of Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007.
  • Automation using Windows PowerShell, Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), Active Directory Services Interface (ADSI), and the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Trevor is a Microsoft-recognized Community Contributor (MCC) and is active in several online communities:

One of his major achievements is the development and public release of an open-source Windows PowerShell module called PowerEvents. During his personal time, he enjoys studying theology, spending time with his girlfriend, being outdoors, shooting photos, playing video games, testing software, and learning about all sorts of new things.
