The videos will be released on Microsoft’s Visio site, one per week, from January 10 until June 19 (2012). We hope you find them informative and entertaining!

Don’t Read! Watch Videos of Visio MVPs Instead!
Oops! I posted Interview With a Visio Guy a bit too soon.
That article features a video with Visio MVP David Parker, who shares words of wisdom about his history of working with Visio, and why it is such a great platform for graphics-based solutions.
But by jumping the gun, I have inadvertently showered Mr. Parker with glory, at the expense of other Visio MVPs.
You see, the video was the first in a FIVE-PART series, called Visio: Drawing on Experience.

Interview With a Visio Guy
With the exception of radio personalities, I find like to associate pretty faces with people whose words I read, whose work I use, and whose endeavors I benefit from.
Recently, an interview with Visio expert David Parker was posted on Microsoft TechNet.
In the video, David tells some interesting, relevant stories about his history of working with Visio, and he shares some wise, eloquent words on the power of Visio as a visual tool for corporate desktop users, and as a platform for visual solution developers.
Plus, we get to hear him say; drooring!
