I went to a Microsoft© demo for SharePoint 2010© today (don't mind the copyright tags, I just want to make sure I am on the up-and-up.) After hours of presentations I noticed that the MS Access© product was obviously missing. I tuned to my co-worker and mentioned that it was odd that the speaker has not mentioned it at all. Not ten seconds later, the presenter mentions Access© during the presentation. Keep in mind that we were in a room on near 100 people and I was sitting about 50 feet from the guy.
The next speaker introduced himself as a MS Evangelist. I found this interesting and turned again to my co-worker who also is a youth pastor and asked him, "what exactly is an Evangelist."
His response lead me to believe that is was someone who travels the world spreading the "word." I compared it to a revivalist traveling with a tent around the south in movies. "Kind of" he responded.
We returned to our office shortly after this. During a meeting I attended in the afternoon with my Boss, he mentions to me that for us to succeed at this new process we need to become "Evangelists."
It is so amazing how this stuff works!
