About the blog

This blog was created and developed by Fabio Sasso, a Brazilian designer living in Porto Alegre (south of Brazil).

My first contact with the internet happened in 1995 and 1996 I started playing with it as a designer. I have a degree in graphic design and I've been working professionally since 1998, here in Brazil, at least in my town, I could say that it was the very beginning of the internet.

The idea behind this blog is primarily to be a channel for me to write down some ideas, experiments, news, and a lot of thing that I see online and probably will forget in a couple of months. Basically it is an archive of my adventures online as a designer on the daily basis. Another thing that I want to do with this blog is to improve my english skills, as a brazilian and non-native speaker of english, it's a good way to practice it. By the way, you might find some english mistakes, maybe a lot sometimes, but I will try my best to make it as legible as possible.

"The blog's name means abducted in Portuguese. I changed its spelling to add ZEE (my design company) instead of abduzido"

Work

In 2003, I founded a web design studio called ZEE, with Fabiano Meneghetti, an architect and friend of mine. It's a small studio now, with 4 people working basically with web.

I will be publishing some of ZEE's latest works, ideas or projects on this blog as well.

I hope we can share a lot of information through this blog.

Fabiano Meneghetti

Fabiano is an architect and designer from Porto Alegre, Brazil. He's been working with design since he got his degree in architecture, a bit odd isnt it? He's a master in Fireworks, CSS among other skills. Besides that he's co-founder of ZEE.

Like my friends Fabio and Paulo, I'm from Porto Alegre and love the web as well. Besides our work at ZEE, I spend my time blogging here on Abduzeedo and to our local blog in portuguese called Deduzeendo. I had the honor to be part of the Abduzeedo's project from ground zero, the very first version, and now on its third I see how much it has grown. I believe that the more we share our skills more we evolve and that's what makes me keep "abduzeendo" you.

Paulo Antunes

Paulo is a 23 year old designer from Porto Alegre, Brazil. He's got great taste for photography, illustration and web design. He's been writing for Abduzeedo since January, 2008.
