While I HATE training end users, I have become the go to person to train on our applications when new employees come in or when we have a significant update to our software.
Also, I proposed the mobile app project and am working on development now. I think that pointed my company in a direction that no one really thought of going in yet.
I have long thought about starting a blog (I did have one for a while), but I haven't quite found the motivation to keep it up. Sigh.
