GETWINE delivers

31 May 2007

No, Jonathan, it wasn't three or four hours.  It was actually less than an hour and a half from when I ordered a case of wine from GETWINE, and had it delivered in my office.

    Did they give you chocolate with your first order? ;-)

    Of course! While it wasn't Lindt Excellence 85% Cocoa (which would have gone better with the wine), it was a quite respectably Lindt Lindor Classics bar. (And it was all eaten way before we opened the first bottle of wine anyway...)

Hi, I'm Neil Blakey-Milner, a technology generalist most interested by open source, security, and building scalable systems (especially if I get to use the Python programming language).

I "work" at the incredibly fun web-sites-for-everyone startup SynthaSite based in beautiful Cape Town, South Africa.

What I do

  • StarCamp

    I was the main instigator behind this 2-day unconference in December 2007 in Cape Town. There'll be another one in Cape Town around July.

  • GeekDinner

    I help out in making these geek social events happen every two months in Cape Town since March 2007.

  • SynthaSite

    I make sure that the systems run smoothly at this Cape Town-born Web 2.0 startup.

  • Presentations

    I speak publically on a number of topics - generally related to technical aspects of open source software or on software development.

  • Code

    I've written a few software projects of my own over the years (although mostly I'm the only user of them).

  • Photos

    I'm far from an artist, but I enjoy capturing my experiences on camera.
