Rockstar Programmer

A rockstar programmer is a programmer who becomes popular not because of technical achievement, but rather by the volume of fanboys who blindly consume his/her products. He or she poses in numerous techie magazines, giving interviews about nothing but Web 2.0 poetry, and attending totally useless "conventions".

Programmer 

(A) Programmer is a species that can make apps for you to use. There are two main types of programmers:

1. The <Cliché Programmer> - can be spotted wearing a conference t-shirt and the pale skin. The main skin of nutrition is a black carbonated liquid which is devoured in a large cuantity;

2. The <Hipster Programmer> - this species only consumes warm liquids based on expensive spices and beans. His only tool is a so called <Macintosh>. The <Hipster Programmer> will often refuse to work with tasks such as <SQL Databases> or <Java>. This specimen also makes use of the trackpad attached to his portable <Macintosh>;

For many individuals (programmers) is considered prestigious to not utilise the <Mouse> unit at all.

Programmer Liaison 

A person or individual that acts as a facilitator and/or middleman between the programmer(s) and another 2nd party or 3rd party (ie: marketing dept. management, customer, company, etc...). A Programmer Liaison can help explain what is actually possible from a technical person(s) standpoint (the programmer) to a non-technical person(s) which can result in a better business environment for any company.
I think we will need to have the Programmer Liaison explain to the Marketing Department in common language what is actually possible when creating our company website from a technical standpoint.
