My name is Tomaž, I am also known online under my alias ‘slax0r’, you can find me on IRC network Freenode, or contact me on Twitter, handle @slax0rr.

I have been involved in software development for over 10 years, ranging from system development to web development. In the past few years, I have switched my focus primarily to web development.
