Hi! I’m João Tomé — Data Editor, storyteller, and journalist. Since 2021 I’ve been at Cloudflare, turning Internet data and trends into stories and interactive experiences. I also host the weekly show This Week in NET.
Before Cloudflare, I spent two decades in Portuguese journalism — newspapers, magazines, television. I covered technology, cinema, and the automotive industry, and worked as editor and presenter at outlets including SIC, Público, Expresso, Observador, and others.
I’m using this space — seremot — to explore ideas, share experiments, and build things.
Writing
