Virtuosity and Virtuoso Video Diary: Onwards and Upwards

Looking back at 2017, I note with satisfaction that it was a phenomenal year of blogging that saw us achieving tons more than we’d dreamed of. Our twin series of blog posts—Virtuosity and the Virtuoso Video Diary—garnered appreciation from all around the world and made it to that coveted special zone in the web browser of our readers—Favorites! Beginning small sometime in the middle of 2016, these series now attract a reader base of around 500 subscribers and counting. Isn’t that heartening?

For most part of the past year and a half, we’ve cruised smoothly around the massive continent of Virtuoso. Along the way, we've charted many islands of useful features for your benefit—at times, ending up pleasantly surprised ourselves at the power and flexibility that Virtuoso offers. We strive to publish interesting reads on a variety of Virtuoso-related topics—from simple to tricky, new to old, popular to lesser-known, and from basic to advanced. In 2018, we’ll only keep pedaling harder to explore new areas and add new flavors to our content.

While our work should do most of the talking, allow us a moment of indulgence. Here’s the bunch of passionate bloggers who have made your favorite content possible:

While all of us proudly share the recognition, the most important person on the team is missing from this collage—you! Dear reader, please accept our heartfelt gratitude for embracing our work and putting the information in it to good use. Thanks to your support, it’s really great to see our baby steps maturing into a confident gait with each passing day. Let’s welcome the new year with bigger plans, firm commitments, and an infectious zeal to achieve even more. And while we get more done, share your feedback to ensure that we stay on a course that’s relevant and useful to you. Your words of encouragement keep us going.

 Once again, here’s wishing you all a fantastic new year! Keep reading, keep learning!
