I made MVP for 2008!

I am deeply honored to again be included as Game for Windows MVP for 2008 with the email I received today:

Dear Owen Hewitt,

Congratulations! We are pleased to present you with the 2008 Microsoft® MVP Award! The MVP Award is our way of saying thank you for promoting the spirit of community and enhancing people’s lives and the industry’s success every day. Your extraordinary efforts in Windows – PC Games technical communities during the past year are greatly appreciated.

Sadly, I hear that my friend Joel DeYoung did not make it this year.
