Those congrats João Pedro Pereira and they hope your words are read not only by the readers that you believe ;) , but also by their fellows and their editors -- and specially by the owners of the media. Journalism in Internet is, well, late in Portugal. Few journalists blog and those who do it, do it for personal fun, we (almost) don't have people taking web seriously as a media. And our newspapers web editions, well, their are poor, they are so 1.0. Público is the best one -- it is almost a normal web edition, if you don't look for links and stories and news about the web (your interview was a notorius exception). Well -- Lisbon rocks, is a great city, come back soon. Jeff, some portuguese journalists (about twelve, my last count) know you and read you.

I will also say that it was hard for me to get my hands around the life of the city; I was talking about that with one of the Conde Nast people at the meeting we attended. We expected to find some broad square with cafes all around: Venice-like. We didn't. So it was hard to find that spot where you could dive into the city. It was also surprisingly quiet, at least in the morning (I went out running at 7a and there was no one around). One thing that reminded me very much of New York is that people don't make a lot of eye contact, I think. It was hard to come away with much more in only three days, some of them filled with meetings. Rodrigo,

It was your first visit? If you would have to pick a city in the States and in the world similar to Lisbon, which ones you pick!? p.s. Starbucks will open the first coffee house in Portugal in the 4th Quarter of 2008! Hi Jeff,
