The PHP Roundtable podcast has posted their latest episode - Episode #24: Becoming A PHP Entrepreneur. This time host Sammy K Powers is joined by PHP community members Michelangelo van Dam (of in2it) and Chris Hartjes (of Grumpy Learning).

So you have a 9-5 job but want to start your own business... where do you start? We discuss what realistic first-steps you'll need to take in order to transform yourself from a PHP employee to PHP entrepreneur.

The podcast was recorded live but you can watch it either via the in-page video player or directly on YouTube. If you enjoy the episode, be sure to either subscribe to their feed or follow them on Twitter to get information about the latest shows as they're announced.

Congratulations are in order for Theo Schlossnagle, a Principal over at OmniTI, who has made it into the list from Inc.com for Ernst and Young's 2007 Entrepreneur of the Year Award candidates.

Being the founder and principal of a $6 million technology company is the crown jewel of Theo Schlossnagle's resume, but this is merely one of his many bragging rights. He is also a published author, the architect of a leading email software solution (www.messagesystems.com), and one of the IT industry's most in-demand speakers. And he's yet to turn 30.

Theo not only founded what became OmniTI (which employs several of the more well-known PHP developers including Wez Furlong, George Schlossnagle and Chris Shiflett) but is active in the PHP community itself, both as a developer and as an author - Scalable Internet Architectures.

Congrats Theo and best of luck!
