I got some great feedback on the post Want Free Advice? Join a Freakin' Meetup. Most of the feedback didn't show up as comments on the post but showed up on Facebook, in my inbox and even over the phone. Its probably been the most discussed post I've ever written.

One of the best comments I got came via email from someone who you should know if you don't yet. I met him at Word Camp Dallas, where he was a speaker, he's also an active member of the WordPress Meetup, and gave a presentation there in April. Lovely readers I'd like to present to you the Now-Famous Randy Hoyt!

First, I'd like to tell you a little bit about Randy and then I want to share with you the most FANTASTIC link he sent me! (Seriously, if you read any business blogs and want to get spotlighted, email the blogger the video I'm about to share, its like omg-I-peed-my-pants good.)

Randy gave me a little bio when I asked about him: "Randy Hoyt is a web developer and myth enthusiast living in Dallas, Texas. He offers his web development services through his freelance company Amesbury Web. He studies mythology and literature in his free time, editing and writing articles for his online myth magazine Journey to the Sea."

What Randy means by all this very nice, demurely written information (its okay, he's not used to being famous yet) is that he is a seriously ROCKING programmer. Like to the point where I'm gonna say if for some reason you don't want to pay us, you should pay him to do your work. In fact, we're hoping Veribatim will be able to use Randy in some future projects because its always great to know someone who creates user-friendly plug-ins. Randy gave the most technical presentation at WordCamp without scaring everyone. And to top it all off, Randy has this mythology site which is awesome. As a former creative writing major, I am crazy about this site of his. And let me tell you, a programmer who enjoys writing in any literary capacity is a rare find indeed.

So, GO CHECK OUT HIS SITE. Do it! Do it now! (Or, at least right after you watch the clip.)

Now, let me share with you the main reason Randy earned his spotlight. After I ranted about clients expecting things for free he sent me this youtube video:

If you are in business and that didn't make little rainbows come out of your nose because you were laughing so hard you are just. not. human.

Now, go! Go check out Randy and give him some love! Here's a post of his that I enjoyed, you might like it too. Leave him a comment and let him know where you're from!
