Let me talk about the history(hehe)
I was webmaster of somesite.com from october 2006 to march 2007.
In January 2007, my new boss wanted to port current home made CMS to a solid platform.
My boss choice was Java, using JBoss(I still smile when remember). I've made research by 3 weeks...
Drupal was the winner, core+community comply at least 80% of full somesite.com functionalities,
the other missing had to be just 2 months of customization and integration of special funcionalities, then the theme and final testing.

Lima-Peru, somewhere in Jesus Maria district

Just now I'm in a place named "cabina de internet", here people pay to use internet. The price is US$ 0.5 per hour. You get a computer (one or two years old) conected to internet. This is the third world, the only important things is "to get connected".

I'm a "web creator" or commonly and wrong said: web developer. My work is boring, thats the reason because this site is to write/read about amazing things for me.
