Since we have several people interested in the MXM tip of the day concept I will start 2 threads. This thread is to help keep the main tip of the day thread on topic.

If you would like to schedule a tip of the day entry then please post to this thread to schedule yourself for the next available day.

Best,
Jason.

No problem, I'm very happy you are helping out here because I have a killer deadline looming and I won't be able to keep this up everyday -- but with a little bit of help I think we can make this a really awesome thing for the community :D
