September 15, 2009 - 2 years and 2 days ago I answered my first question on EE. It's been a lot of fun. I'm proud to have been able to help so many people and honored that some come back specifically for my assistance. Added bonus is all of the great people I've encountered through this site.
August 5, 2009 - EE named me the 2nd most efficient Expert! I had no idea; but kind of cool! :)
http://www.ee-stuff.com/Newsletter/080509newsletter.htmJuly 28, 2009 - Woohoo! Finally reached the Hall of Fame! I do feel bad though that my rise means somebody else has to be bumped off.
June 23, 2009 - My article
http://www.experts-exchange.com/articles/Database/Oracle/How-Oracle-Stores-Passwords.html Was designated "EE Approved" today. I hope you find it helpful
May 21, 2009 - I've been cutting back drastically since the beginning of the year and trying to get my open question count down and it's been slowly succesful. I'm down under 65 open questions with only 6 remaining open from last year. If you have an open question, please close it, or provide some feedback for me to work with. Even if all my open questions were accepted with C's I'd easily reach the hall of fame; but I'm shooting for a little better than that. :)
May 14, 2009 - Earned my Master Oracle CRM certificate today as well as my PL/SQL Genius.
I'm happy about the PL/SQL but not the CRM. Like the SCM product I mentioned a few weeks ago I know
nothing about the Oracle CRM product. The questions in that zone have been, with few exceptions, just
plain Oracle sql or pl/sql related and a few about administration; but not the CRM product.
I recommend the Oracle CRM zone also be eliminated and the questions consolidated into the "Oracle Product Info" or "Oracle Database" zones.
When I started answering questions on EE I thought it would be fun to try to reach Genius in one year.
I didn't make it, but I did complete 3 in less than two years so I can be happy with that.
Next goal is to reach the Hall of Fame.
May 7, 2009 - I presented at Collaborate09. To the EE members that came, thanks and I hope you enjoyed it! Contact me at the address below if you'd like the slides, whitepaper or sample code.
April 28, 2009 - Today I earned my Master Oracle SCM certificate which is a bit bogus.
This is a bad zone. The questions in it aren't specific to the Supply Chain product just generic Oracle, SQL or PL/SQL.
And while those areas are my strong suit, I know nothing about the Supply Chain product itself. However if people continue to post
generic Oracle questions there, I'll still try to answer them anyway. I do suggest though that the zone be removed and the questions
consolidated into the Oracle Product Info zone or the parent Oracle zone.

I've been a member for several years but for whatever reason never participated until September 2007. (Answered my first question Sep. 13)
Now that I've started, I really enjoy helping people on Expert Exchange and try very hard to give complete answers when I can.
Oracle Database Zones are definitely my strongest area.
I used to keep track of when I earned every rank in every zone
but now I'm just keeping track of the big milestones.
