A quick question …

Wondering if anyone has done some work towards capturing motion FROM SL and exporting a stream that could be used in other 3D modeling/animation scenarios?

My thought is to capture sequences from SL and to have them in some form that would work in Augmented Reality…

I am in the middle of updating the structure, behavior, and yes, content of my Resume

The thing I have working now is a form of tooltip.  Click on any section that highlights, and it will go try to find additional info for that.  You can click again to toggle it off.

As for content:  I’ve lumped my work of the last few years together under Freelance Web Development. It has been a fun exercise in getting some breadth.  If I find the right thing now to commit to full time, then yeah, I am there!  Otherwise, I am happy to mesh with the right folks at the right times, do a good gig, and look back at it as a great experience (most of the ones in the last few years have gone well).

The other bit about contracting is that it has let me control my hours — I’ve been able to leverage that into a lot of learning about Second Life (scripting, building, managing).  There IS a plan to that :)  I know that virtual worlds will become more mainstream, and so I have spent time amassing skills that will serve well when that happens.

Back to the resume, it will be changing a lot in the next few days.  Let me know of any inquiries, suggestions, etc.

Contract wound up.  Looking for a new web/sl gig.  SF/NYC/Remote.  I’d rather fly to the east coast than drive to the damn South Bay.

Opened up "Women Who Rock" with my co-curator Abbey at the MuMu.  Off to a good start!  I got some video of Joan Jett at the Marin County Fair on the 2nd.  Doing some editing in Final Cut Express, and will add my own videos to the show.

Speaking of Final Cut Express — it feels good to learn something that is complex and challenging that is not programming for a change.  I am digging it.  My 2ghz/2gb iMac feels slow, but hey, I’ll make the best of it.

Did a DIY camera mount for my bike — too much frikken shake for my Flip Mino.  May work great for my Nikon digital cameras though.. (reflector mount drilled out for a 3/8" bolt + Manfrotto 3009 swivel head)
