Finally I have a home page...

WELCOME for now

As I have been using the Internet since 1990 and developing web applications since 1995, now that we are writing 2004, it might be a good time to setup my own home page.

At one point I'll have to organise the material on this site, but first let's just say a a few words about myself in general.

I was born in 1967 in Budapest, Hungary. After successfully graduating from one of the more competitive high-schools in the country I though I can even learn Mathematics. It took two years to understand it is way too much for me so in 1989 I decided to make some adjustments. It involved moving to Israel, spending almost a year on a Kibbutz learning Hebrew and then starting to learn Computer Sciences and Business Administration at the Hebrew University. I finished that in 1993 and then went on to do an MBA in the same place while working full time in various hi-tech companies.

A little jump here ... one day I'll have to fill in the white pages.

Since about 2000 I have been providing Perl training through a local training school till I understood that they are barely interested in Perl. Then I decided to provide training directly to the customers. Thus I developed material for several classes, some of them are quite unique in the Perl world. See my page about training.

I am also involved a bit in the Perl community, but I'll write about that later.
