See an Excel sheet in SL with Glasshouse

Once you run Glasshouse and load an Excel file, it's easy to make changes and pull those changes into the graph you create in Second Life. We added a refresh menu option to the green cube.

live graph quick demo

This video really doesn't do the live graph justice; you should really see it in-world. But here it is anyway. :)

new hq in sl; time-series; OLIVE; python MXP!!!

Green Phosphor has a new headquarters in Second Life, next door to Popcha! and Brooklyn is Watching. Here's a SLurl:

Our buildings were designed and constructed by architect Werner Kurosawa.

Ed has implemented time series animation in Glasshouse and in the Wonderland CICP adapter. In our Wonderland sandbox you can look at a graph of quarterback stats changing over time. It's killer. We're now applying this new capability to visualization of the stock market.

The integration of Glasshouse with Forterra's OLIVE virtual world platform is going swimmingly. I visited their offices last week to see how things were going and I'm psyched. OLIVE is a fantastic platform.

---

I am super excited about the latest MXP developments (http://bubblecloud.org). Dan Miller is involved, and working with everyone on a python implementation of an MXP viewer! This is what MXP is all about: enabling multiple platforms to interoperate. Python, c#, Java, c++... heck SmallTalk even... we should all be able to play together nicely.

That's all for now...
