I’ve been so busy with my exams and the launch of Curtti.com that I forgot about posting about it here. The project is now in its open-beta stage and we are glad everything is working fine. I will post more information about it here once I’m done with my exams!
You can check the website at http://www.curtti.com/ – it’s in Portuguese! Enjoy.

In November 2009, Forbes magazine published a ranking of the World’s Most Powerful People. Power can be defined in many ways, but in the Forbes context it is limited to, and personified by, three categories: politicians, businessmen and billionaires. Some people are in two, even three of those categories at once. Nevertheless, a good read for anyone interested in knowing a bit more about the elite that currently “runs” the world.

I was looking for some icons for an application I’m developing with a few friends and I came across these really cool websites:
http://www.iconfinder.net/
http://findicons.com/
For the app I needed an icon for “shower”, I know, not a very usual thing. I couldn’t find a decent shower icon on any of the top 10 google results for “icon search engine”. But for all my other queries I ended up finding some cool high quality icons.
Have fun

We’ve seen the rise of social networks all over the world. Each country has its preferred social network site and each site has its unique features. The thought that web presence is no longer limited to the corporate website is becoming common sense between internet marketing professionals. It is necessary to sail into the new waters of social network sites. And no, I’m not talking about simply having a company profile or group on facebook, bebo or orkut, that’s also important, but you should go beyond that and benefit from the open development platform many of these social networks are offering. By letting you create specific applications to run on their environment, developers have the chance to reach people and spread their apps in a viral form. It’s an excellent way to produce some brand awareness
You need to ask yourself: “What can my site offer to social network users?”
There are already a lot of applications and the companies using these strategies are pulling great results.

Hi,
This one is just to break the ice. I will use this blog to talk about my past and current work experiences. Here I will let the world know about the latest web trends, cool scripts, plug-ins, components, the projects I’m working on or whatever I think is worth mentioning. In order to get all the information organized I will create a few categories. I think I will start with News, Professional and Personal. This is going to the News section.
