Manel Aguilar and Albert Lombarte are very close friends since studying at the same college and working together for some years. They work now for different spanish web major companies (Softonic, Atrápalo) as developers on subjects as user experience, site optimization, internacionalization, framework design, etc. They keep sharing projects (3viajesaldia, this site) and also interest in gadgetry, apple stuff, spanglish perfectioning, beer consuming, just to mention some of them. They live in Barcelona, Spain where they enjoy an excellent climate with their wives and close-to-be-wives.

	Manel Aguilar Born: 1974, Barcelona Non-geek hobbies: Cinema, live music and 2nd hand business. Manel, or Manuel, call him as you like as he never forced anyone to make a choice between name variants. He enjoys playing with PDA devices (Palm OS, not Pockets!). Do sit next to him for a couple of minutes and you'll be wondering how a Palm can do all these things. He has owned more Palms than you hair.

	Albert Lombarte Born: 1979, Barcelona Non-geek hobbies: Cooking, photography, animals (also bugs). Albert (not Alberto), is a never-fed-up programmer/designer/sysadmin (for the same price) and a coffee abuser responsible for hardcoding programs (suspect now on our domain name) of any nature. He likes to contribute to the Open Source community by localizing to Catalan every application he finds interesting whether it be platform independent or Mac OS X related. Some of this contributions are: Plone CMS, Firefox, Sunbird, Flock, N\|vu, Cyberduck, Adium, One Snap Finger, iPodBackup, CocoASpell, and many others... You can find much of this in Softcatalà where he puts most of the contributed works. He also enjoys testing operative systems, web applications and do some experiments with CSS, AJAX as well as the standard web.
