Rob Manuel (born 5 December 1973) is the English co-founder of the website B3ta (where he is affectionately known as "the Ginger Führer").

Work

Manuel is responsible for numerous quizzes and Flash animations. He has also collaborated with Joel Veitch and Ben Wheatley producing videos for Tomboy Virals. Together with Jonti Picking, under the names Weebl and Chums, he released a mini-album, Pure Yak Frenzy, consisting of various tunes and earworms created by one or both of them. Most of these tracks gained popularity on the Internet (usually accompanied by a Flash animation) before being released on CD.

Manuel has developed various Twitter bots, including Clickbait Robot (@clickbaitrobot, which parodies clickbait, Swear Clock (@swearclock, which tweets the time using profanity), and Fesshole (@fesshole, public confessions) with a spin off book. In 2022, he recorded a mix for the song "Prince Andrew Is a Sweaty Nonce" by The Kunts.
