Biography

One of my heroes once said that content without purpose are not content: it's decoration. Because that is what the Web always has been about: sharing, giving, pay for and getting paid for content.

I have published on the web more than half of my live. It has always been there, and I felt early that my purpose in this world was to contribute. Make it good and sustainable.

Besides programming, I spend most of my time creating music.
