Small pic for your Wokrplace?
Favorite: Languages, JS Framework ?
- Language: don’t have one. I like PHP for fast web development, Ruby/Python for their versatility and portability.

The things or source that inspired you?
Pieces of monumental work run by single individuals such as NginX or Qmail have inspired me and continue to do so.
What’s do you prefer, the freelance work or the full time employee?
Can’t decide. Both have their benefits. I think being a freelancer gives you more time for personal projects. But being a full time employee lets you embark on bigger projects and challenges.
Your personnel projects and goals for 2010?
