Unofficial Spiceworks

Lots has happened with Spiceworks since my last post on here, but due to work I havn’t been able to do much.

I have however got to tall everyone how GREAT SpiceWorld 2012 in Austin was. All of the Spiceworks staff were there, the vendors were technical, the after parties and the after after after parties were rather cool. Just the whole thing was amazing, hope to make it out next year.

If you havn’t seen it yet checkout the latest zombies video below, hopefully you have seen the first one by now.

Jay Hallberg has just posted on twitter some really exciting news

Spiceworks now has over 2,000,000 IT pros. Happened around 3:43 am last night. Took 4 yrs for 1M, 2 yrs for 2M. Stay tuned for more… See his post

With SpiceWorld London just 2 weeks away the whole event will be more exciting with this latest news just behind them. Expect to see some official blog post about what this means on the Spiceworks community soon.

But taking just 2 years to get from 1M to 2M users we anticipate something bigger and better than the 1M party they threw.

Congratz guys!

Get it while its hot!

In this version there are lots of changes which will help you work more effectively.

The network scan now http://nmap.org/ to work out whats on your network before it starts to run its full scan which will help clear up your unknowns. You can now hide the remote agent tray application. And much much more!

As with many company's if you do well you can get promoted and due to his hard work SpiceRex has just been promoted to Chief Rawr Officer at +Spiceworks.

SpiceRex has helped many IT pro's around the world get though the good and bad. This new promotion means he gets his own oil painting made up and hung in pride of place by his own meeting room at Spiceworks HQ.

Jay and Scott will be jealous, don't remember hearing about them getting an oil painting

SpiceRex recently received a promotion to Chief Rawr Officer. Given his increasing responsibilities is the areas of going "rawr!" it was a natural progression. All other dinosaurs and all roaring is now under his purview. He is also responsible for the newly formed asteroid detection program, which is understandable given what happened last time dinosaurs ruled the earth.

To commemorate the occasion, Jen had an oil portrait done. SpiceRex dressed up in his Sunday best, complete with pepper lapel pin
