Vision

Believe it or not, but in 2010 I’m doing exactly what I wanted to do in 2000. I’ve discovered the web back then and that you can actually put something into it, and nowadays I’m trying to daily raise the quality bar for the software that I release into the web. Things like Open Source, Ruby, the paradigms of Rails, RSpec and recently MongoDB have enlightened my work and the picture I have of quality software.
