I am 27-years old computer scientist and engineer, as well as a passionate, detail-obsessed, developer. I think that technology can improve human beings life, and I trust that this can be only achieved by using open standards and designing usable, non-invasive, softwares and devices. I also strongly believe in research, knowledge sharing, and open source development (though I am not a “non-commercial software extremist”). Finally, I consider Internet both a social revolution and the future of software development, because I trust that network services will be the core of the next generation applications.
