Roo Reynolds - What’s Next?

Andrew (Roo) Reynolds is a Metaverse Evangelist based at IBM’s Hursley Park laboratory in the UK. He is part of a team which facilitates the use of Virtual Worlds within IBM. All of this work is made all the more enjoyable thanks to a large world-wide community who are learning to collaborate and get things done in totally new ways.

He was previously an Emerging Technologies Specialist in which his role included attempting to keep on the early-adopter curve. While acknowledging there are not enough hours in the day to claim to be an expert in everything, Roo still reads and writes far too many blogs and tries to keep his eyes open.

He enjoys exploring and building in the metaverse that is Second Life, uploading his photos to Flickr, keeping his bookmarks on del.icio.us, updating his playlist on Last.fm, sharing his trips and events on Dopplr and Upcoming and what he is currently doing on Twitter, as well as indulging in any number of other bleeding-edge alpha geek social software type activities.

Roo is married to an artist, who tries her hardest to keep him balanced.

As well as writing here, he also contributes to Eightbar, the loose collaboration of Hursley geeks. You can find out more about him, and see which contacts you have in common, at LinkedIn.
