The Missing Credits
About the Author
Brett McLaughlin is a senior level technologist and strategist, active especially in web programming and data-driven customer-facing systems. Rarely focused on only one component of a system, he architects, designs, manages, and implements large-scale applications from start to finish with mission-critical implementations and deadlines.

Currently, he spends most of his current time working on NASA projects, which sounds much cooler than it actually is. But hey, maybe that satellite overhead really is controlled by PHP and MySQL…
