Who

My name is Arthur Debert and I am a web developer living in São Paulo, Brazil.

I've been doing front end coding, mostly flash, for a couple of years. I created and maintain a few open source projects: BulkLoader and printf-as3.

Needless to say, my views and opinions expressed on this site are mine and mine alone.

Stack

For the technically inclined, this site was coded with django. Using code from the coltrane blog, django-tagging , jquery, and pygments.

Hosted on slicehost. Back end is served with nginx, as a reverse proxy to apache + mod_swgi with memcached.

Elsewhere:

Links on del.ici.ous (also mirrored here).

Photos on flicker.

Micro ramblins on twitter.

Projects at google code.
