Naturally, an OPML file will appear soon with all users and places. Search too. But now I gotta get back into the real life gig. It’s all related ;)

Don’t all rush at once. The HUD itself will be available soon. This system was the product of a brainwave while sitting in a sea of RSS. What you see there was thrown together in a couple of hours. You can tell I’m having fun when that happens – things tumble into place out of the blue

    Fun in bite-sized pieces… and wow, you already set up a website for it! I like the logo too–pixelfonts. :) Now, I am thinking of how I could use this.

    Cool! Thanks for stopping by.

    I’ve had a load of ideas already about conference/delegate seatining – ‘comment stream’ event stuff too.

    Also, if it was easier to upload a texture from inventory, using normal php/scripted methods for file upload through a form, then we’d be rockin the cazbah!

    I’m just figuring out how to ‘do’ a user registration – so ppl can edit posts etc – then I’ll bust it all out there. :P

    Also – do you think this sort of thing should be given away? Or sold? (given that the data is all hosted)

    In fact I just thought of an easy addition:

    Land rating too

    eg: type /9 rate:++ or /9:rate -

    the blogHUD will then send your rating for that land (or anything, why not) to the server

    hurrah for good old inspiration! :)

    Very cool! A great use of technology merging the RL with SL.

Who is this ‘kosso’ anyway?

I am a 'Createc'. A creative technologist, entrepreneur/ hacker/ geek. Worked on building things on the web for over 12 years.

I'm engaged to the beautiful Efisia Fele :)

Used to work at BBC News interactive and created the publishing and delivery systems for video news to get distributed on huge screens in major railway stations around the country.

I left the BBC to become CTO / sole-lead architect/developer at podcast.com for three years.

I have now left them to build a start up a new system called 'Phreadz', which is a 'Social Multimedia Conversation Network', integrating everything that is 'V.I.T.A.L' to us on the web. Video, Images, Text, Audio and Links.

I built the whole thing my myself and will soon be looking for funds to expand the team and system to make it available to launch.

There are currently happy and helpful 500 (closed) beta testers on the system so far and one client of a white-labelled solution.

Phreadz has a business model, which is already working.
