Welcome
Welcome to the first post from Neptune’s Lab. I will begin logging an ongoing journal of 2.0, Web API’s and emerging convergence technologies. This is a personal journal outside of a few friends interested in my take on the state of internet from a developers perspective.
If you know me as Neptune Swindlehurst you might not want to admit it. Neptune lives in Second Life and has spent all of his time building a house and learning to do the splits without ripping his hip avatar jeans (SL scripting). Neptune has no hot avatar girlfriends and lacks any sweet dance scripts, Numchuck or bow hunting skillz. Joining Second Life is free, however if you use my link I get some SL cash (know as Lindens).
Since I research online trends and their convergent application’s as part of my job. Neptune makes an excelent anonymous persona. Neptune allows me to keep up with the innovations on SL while providing photos for my flikr account, video’s for YouTube and any other content I can squeeze out of him.
Neptune can be one of those super cool ride your segway to work cuppa jo sippping built it in 10 minutes with ruby on rails while talking on his iPhone eTarded.tv assholes, and I don’t have to even feel the shame.
If this blog series begins to benefit you in anyway, feel free to let Neptune know.
