It's been an interesting week of building out a new cluster on EC2 and making spaces for someone who is a professional 3D artist but not particularly web savvy. It's clear that there is an opportunity for tools to bridge the One Big Scene approach to 3D and the Ogoglio approach of many pieces, loosely joined.
In addition, as the rubber hits the road and I get a feel for how S3 and EC2 behave under load, it's clear that the monitoring tools need work and that the cluster needs to be reactive to changes in active population by bringing more or fewer server instances online.
So much work, so little time.
On a completely unrelated note, I added a Google news feed widget to the Transmutable marketplace for those of you who need information from the blue room:
