VMTN Blog

If you're not watching Planet V12n, you're missing out. It may seem like a firehose, but it's really is the best of the web on virtualization, both the industry and best practices in the field. Often we won't cover the same topics here on VMTN Blog because I assume you are also checking Planet V12n. It has a news feed if you are so inclined, so no excuses.
