I've heard back from Rhodes about my credits, and it's good news: I'm graduating in early April. So, this means I'll be in Grahamstown for at least the 2nd and 3rd, and I'll see if I have enough leave to have a proper visit. Yay!
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.
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.
I help out in making these geek social events happen every two months in Cape Town since March 2007.
I make sure that the systems run smoothly at this Cape Town-born Web 2.0 startup.
I speak publically on a number of topics - generally related to technical aspects of open source software or on software development.
I've written a few software projects of my own over the years (although mostly I'm the only user of them).
I'm far from an artist, but I enjoy capturing my experiences on camera.
