Matt at the appropriately titled hackdiarydoesn't spend his free time socializing in MMORPG Second Life. He hacks it. With the recent release of Version 1.10, communication with the web on demand is now possible. Hence, Matt's latest project.
I've spent a few hours hacking on some toy objects with this new capability, starting with the mashup de rigeur: Flickr integration. My home in SL now sports a simple picture frame. Touch it and it looks up your avatar name to see what your favourite Flickr tag is, picks a random picture with that tag from Flickr and displays it on its surface. If it hasn't met you before, it asks you to tell it what tag to use.
Anyone interested in this can find Matt in SL as "Matt Basiat."
