Hello, my name is Paulo Querido. I’m a Portuguese journalist and writer. Did almost everything in newspapers with a typewriter, a phone and a telex machine in the eighties, a CP/M computer and a CompuServe account in the eighties and the Internet in the nineties. I wrote a lot about technology and networking. Yes, a lot, enough. Now I prefer to code and teach.
This is my blog about the new skills a journalist can learn to do an effective job in a world totally full of data, as well as the effects of openness of information and governance around the world.
Skills &languages
I use mainly PHP and Linux shell scripting. A few Perl here and there. Learning Python and Javascript now. I can run a server in a few minutes on the Amazon cloud services (AWS, EC2, S3). I can tweak a MySQL or an Apache with relative success and be proud.

Hello, my name is Paulo Querido. I'm a portuguese journalist and writer. Did almost everything in newspapers and wrote a lot about technology and networking. I still publish on print 5 days a week, but I prefer to develop web apps and services for newsrooms ans individual journalists. I occasionally update the conversation going on about new skills that improve journalism in an environment totally full of data, as well as the effects of openness of information and governance around the world.
