Daniel Duende/sep-2003

Daniel Duende, born Daniel Augusto Louzada Costa Carvalho in the strange and exciting year of 1977 in Brasilia (Brazil's capital), believes he is a writer. He performed various roles in his life - from software programmer to wedding photographer, from bank worker to tarot reader... and so on. He actualy lives in a simple flat in Brasilia with friends and computers and books swarming the place.


Being a knowledge addict since his tender youth, Daniel Duende is always ready (and eager) to explain and teach things to people. In his youth, having a very fragile health, he dwelt on books and encyclopaedia most of the time. Many times people think his rants are interesting. Some other times they think he's quite boring, but they like him anyway. This love for acquiring (and imparting) knowledge brought him to Wikipedia. It's time to start contributing to more people's knowledge. His friends are very relieved by his new outlet of "information"...


Daniel Duende has a blog (in portuguese), a flickr page (mostly in portuguese too) and a fotolog.net flog (just in case you want to know more about him)


Daniel Duende loves good people and good stories. Wiki is about people, most of them very good and interesting and resourceful doing and saying good things, and maybe good stories.


Daniel supports the Free Culture Movement
