Who is Harper?  First, he is a Nepholologist.  Google it.  Or Bing it. (let me know which works best for you). But foremost, he is a really geeky geek!  He knows business, and cloud, and customers - and mostly - he knows Rackspace.  He's a long time customer.

You can read his resume here.  He is perhaps known best for being the CTO of Threadless - an amazing company that kicks serious butt with design.

So why Rackspace?  Because we are focused on hiring the best of the best - and Harper is certainly in that breed.  We love talent, and we love people that push us.  People that don't think exactly like us interest us even more.

So tonight we welcome Harper to the Rackspace family.  Who's next?  More on that in the next few weeks.  We're building something big - and hiring the best people we can find to help us.

Welcome to Rackspace, Harper - couldn't be happier!

I'm available for discussion on this - @kr8tr on twitter.  Direct communication channels below.
