Ruby Wants A Word with Eugeniu Vozoca, 20, Moldova.

I came across a website this week, that really caught my eye. It might have been the minimalistic design, the simple but eloquent idea behind it, or maybe just the content. But I wanted to know more about it.
After a bit of research I found this young man....

Whats your name? [We'll start simple]
Hey! My name is Eugeniu Vozoca

When were you born?
I was born on 16th of January, 1991, in Chetrosu, Anenii Noi district, Republic of Moldova, it is a small village located 22km from Chisinau, the capital city of Moldova.

What do you do, study, work etc ?
I am student at the Academy of Economic Studies of Moldova – Marketing & Logistics; also I’m freelance web designer & developer.

Tell me about Opinion Jam? How did it come about?
Opinion Jam (opinionjam.com) is a social voting website where people show love for brands by voting them. Opinion Jam isn’t limited to brands. The idea was born when I woke up at 2 a.m., I immediately started to code and in the morning I registered the domain name.


How do you spend your free time?
I spend my free time surfing the web.

What music are you listening too at the moment?
I listen to different genres of music, depending on my mood... My latest faves are: Phantogram, Miike Snow, Passion Pit, Robyn, La Roux, Radiohead, Kate Nash, Jack Johnson, etc.

What are you favourite Brands, and your least favourite Brands?
My favourite brands are Apple, Google, Threadless, Converse, Vans. I dislike Microsoft for their low quality products, for such a corporation it should be way higher, kinekt is the only thing they succeeded in.

The main thing brands don't seem to get about being my age is...
...that we’re more informed than they think, I hate when brands hide something.

The thing I've been meaning to do for ages but not got round to damn well doing is...
...to learn the Adobe Illustrator

Two choices I make everyday are...
...to stay in front of the computer or should I call it a night and go to bed.



The thing that frustrates me more than anything in my world is...
...when people stare at my dreadlocks like at an alien.

I'll know I've made it when...
...my websites will be top ranked :)

If I was a big brand and could use my power to make a difference I would...
...be what I am and try to think different.

When it comes to looking after myself, I am...
...friendly, I love music, minimalistic design & my dreadlocks :)

My favourite place to think is...
...at home at night.

When I think about the future, it makes me feel...
...excited!
