No. I’m not just quoting Mr. Schwarzenegger. I will be back to posting here.
I’ve been so busy programming. A web application and a web service occupied me all the time in recent months.
But worth it. A group of media in my country, Portugal, is making good use of my newsroom intelligence service (more on this shortly). And the web app “Topics” proved its worth and I am now to internationalize it (a French television will join the portuguese newspapers Jornal de Negócios and Correio da Manhã, which already use the web app Topics).
I intend to share some experiences. The most recent is the use of Varnish as a HTTP accelerator. It rocks — and it will save you big money in IT resources.
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.
