Just call him Mr. Interactive.  Though Troy may be on the quiet side, he’ll definitely make up for it with his music.  Whatever there is to know about Web, interactive design, blogs, and what can and cannot be done, Troy’s the expert. When we ask the impossible, give him time and he’ll work out the unworkable.
