Yasen Pramatarov’s Summary

I'm a freelance web-developer and GNU/Linux sysadmin. Also web2.0 and XMPP enthusiast, free software and free culture evangelist. I participate in Bulgarian translation teams of GNOME and KDE and experiment and develop new web ideas at Lindeas.com, my home in Internet.

I write online articles about free software, free culture and web tendencies for my projects and for some online magazines in Bulgaria.

I'm also an amateur photographer. Feel free to browse my photoblog or to buy full-size copies of my stock photos from online agencies (Fotolia, Dreamstime, IStockPhoto, FeaturePics - you will find the links at my ClaimID page, http://claimid.com/yasen).

I participate in two photographic projects, http://UrbanStyle.org and http://SimpleStudio.org
