At Microsoft SharePoint Conference '09, the New Zealand-based SharePoint search company Pingar announced venture capitalist Chris de Boer has been appointed as non-executive chairman of the company. de Boer replaces The Earl of Erroll, who had been in that role. It's assumed The Earl will land on his feet, though; according to a company handout, he's the 24th Earl of Erroll, 25th Lord Hay, 24th Lord Slains, 12th Bt (Moncreiffe of that Ilk), 28th Hereditary Lord High Constable of Scotland, 32nd Chief of the Hays. Further, and perhaps more importantly, he helps promote Scotch Whisky as a Patron of the Keepers of the Quaich, and he's also one of the Hereditary Peers elected to stay in the British Parliament's House of Lords. If he actually had the time to answer, I'm sure he would agree that SharePoint is -- ahem -- without peer!
