Open Source

I spend most of my spare time working in Open Source projects, writing code, docs, helping in mailing lists or IRC, etc. Open Source is all about knowledge sharing and collaboration in its pure form, something I strongly believe makes for a better society.

I has been into Perl for some years. I am a CPAN author, president of Barcelona.pm, and teach a Perl semester at the University of Barcelona, which is something vocational I do in my spare time. Back in 2006 I published an article about the intricacies of newlines for O'Reilly's ONLamp.com.

Nowadays I am into Ruby on Rails, a kick-ass web development framework. I am a Rails core contributor, member of the Rails Documentation Team, and the guy behing Rails Contributors. Also honoured to be the president of the Spanish Ruby Users Group, which organised the European Ruby Conference 2009 (EuRuKo 2009), held in Barcelona.

I am available for contract work as Ruby on Rails consultant. Please feel free to contact me at .

Live Streaming

These are my accounts at Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, LinkedIn.

I maintain a tech-oriented diary at Advogato since 2001. That diary predates the blogging wave and I keep its original spontaneous, lightweight, casual style.

Reading

Reading is one of my passions. Since I set up this home page I keep a list of books I read.
