About the Author

Thomas Myer is a technical book author, consultant, and web developer. In 2001, he founded Triple Dog Dare Media in Austin, Texas. Triple Dog Dare Media helps companies in two ways: by writing technical copy (case studies, white papers, articles, and user guides) and by creating CodeIgniter-based applications like content management systems, portals, and ecommerce systems. Thomas Myer is the author of No Nonsense XML Web Development with PHP (Sitepoint, 2004), Lead Generation on the Web (O'Reilly, 2007) and Professional CodeIgniter (WROX, 2008). He has also authored dozens of technical and business articles for IBM DeveloperWorks, Amazon Web Services, AOL, Darwin Magazine, and others. Since founding Triple Dog Dare Media in 2001, he's made every single mistake in the book as concerns business, but learned valuable lessons along the way. His friends and spouse encouraged him to collect the hard-won wisdom of consulting and put it into a book-thus, Geek to Peak was born.
