I have been writing code for many years. I write mostly C++/PHP/C# and I will continue to do so. I was engaged in virtual presence projects of the European Union during my PhD. I was CTO of weblin), a virtual presence system based on Jabber (now defunct. I am now working on a successor to weblin in the [http://www.openvirtualworld.com Open Virtual World] project in my spare time, which also implementents 3D avatars on Web pages using the XMPP protocol with open source servers and custom clients.
