About this website

This remote corner in the vastness of cyberspace is my virtual laboratory, it was created to experiment with personal blogging, process thoughts, organize ideas and share them with whoever may be listening. The experiments involve writing, programming and whatever else that evoke my "will to express" out of the walled cesspools of social media.

It's curious how much we can get in touch with when we start to write down our thoughts. If you want to think better, write more.

About me

I'm a Brazillian tech support and programmer who's interested in computers, programming and open technologies.

I have been browsing internet since 2000 and grew up among that internet chaos. It was a time of uninhibited creativity, personalization and self-expression that was very fun to take part in.

I came late to almost every "cyberparty" out there (except for the internet one). While people were using Windows XP and playing Age of Empires 2, I was using Windows 95/98 and playing Age of Empires 1 and Warcraft 2. When people were playing Warcraft 3 and Age of Mytology on Windows 7, I was playing AOE 2 and Starcraft on Windows XP. My digital life kept following that pattern for quite some time. I use Linux nowadays but this process kinda shaped my interaction with technology in general, made me appreciate things in a more slow paced way, and made me able to actually enjoy stuff instead of being hysterical or hasty with the new shiny/hot thing arround.

Althought times change and the way people interact with technology also change, I believe that the free spirit of internet still lives in the many small websites that inhabit the internet, keep growing and refuse to go away.

Projects

I'm currently maintaining a very simple SSG (Static Site Generator) program I wrote in Python, it was the first "serious" program I wrote when I learned the basics of programming and this website was a result of my dire need to test it.
