Hey there, welcome to my personal site. I'm Silvio Porcellana and I basically build websites for fun and profit. Type *help* to know how to browse this site, or click on the white links to navigate and discover, for example, *whoami*

At the moment I am mainly working on my "web agency franchising" project, https://webitalysystem.it : if you live in Italy and want to explore this opportunity, check it out and get in touch.

I sometimes write *articles* on magazines and blogs, usually sharing my ramblings at the interception of technology, geopolitics and economic practice and theory.

I also create courses to help people become better at developing, designing and marketing websites - check them out at https://academy.silvioporcellana.com if you are interested

Enjoy! :-)

You could call me a web entrepreneur - I've got many products and *projects* launched, some successfully, some meh, some to great failures - but in reality I just like to create stuff that people use and my skills, history and passion allow me to do so by writing (mostly bad) code.

So, I spend my working hours maintaining my main project, https://www.themavensystem.com/, and thinking about ways to transform what I like to do in something that can feed me and my family.

In the end, the three things that make me professionally happy are exploring problems and solutions, solving technical challenges to transform those solutions into actual products and watching people enjoy and get value out of those things that I built.

Does that make me an entrepreneur? Who knows... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
