Passionate programmer, geek at heart, interested in everything that relates to

technology. Yes, I have certain amount of experience in software development, but
what I really like is learn and share new things and why not, have fun in meantime.
When I'm not working I'm a movies addict, voracious reader, music listener, tennis
player and family man.
