I am Felipe Gomes, 23, and recently graduated at Computer Engineering at the Computer Science dept. (ICMC) from University of São Paulo (USP), in the nice city of São Carlos (Brazil), a tech-minded city covered by two important universities (USP and UFSCar).
I live for computer science. My interests range in a wild variety of subjects, including, but not limited to, app and web development using open standards and languages; successful open source initiatives; usability and human-computer interactions; social aspects of the web; digital inclusion in communities.
Since the beginning of this year, I’ve been working at Mozilla to help build the next version of Firefox. Some of the projects I’m involved are: everything related to the multitouch API and its features that will be part of Firefox 4; I’m also working on Jetpack (the new add-on builder), as well as various other small projects.
I also did scientific research in my computer science department, were I worked with Natural Language Processing, specially involving Machine Translation, and developed a full featured online tool for translation assistance, in a project which involved the use of a wide range of linguistic tools built in different open source and open standard environments, including PHP, Perl, MySQL and XML.
