About

Welcome, this is my personal homepage, I am Carlos Castillo, born in Independencia, Santiago, Chile, in January 1977. I am married and I have a son. I research in the area of Web information retrieval.

I am also an atheist, promoter of civil rights, and vegetarian, in that order. I contribute to the Wikipedia when I can. I write. I write a lot.

I studed in a high-school named "Enrique Molina" in Concepción, Chile, for 2 years, then in the "Instituto Nacional" for 3 years, then in the Engineering School of the University of Chile for 10 years where I got my degree as Civil Engineer (2000) and PhD (2004). Next year I moved to Barcelona where I live up to the present (2008).

Where am I?
