On Friday, at the LA CTO Forum , I heard from a couple of CTOs having trouble finding good developers. I'm primarily looking for front end developers who are experts in AS3, and back end developers who are proficient at PHP and MySQL. I took a look at TechEmpower, and it looks like you guys are doing great! Perfect timing.
