Gwyneth Llewelyn is especially known for her blog. She is also considered something of a philosopher of Second Life. Her personal take is that she is a "loudmouth." ==Gwyneth Llewelyn in Second Life== In July 2004 she had been living for about 10 months in Uli, a peaceful neighbourhood, where most residents are artists. More recently, she'd been renting space from Eloise Pasteur in her many plots in Io. She now seems to hang out mostly in Neufreistadt and CDS. She is no builder (last attempt of building a house was in September 2004), no land baroness, content baroness, or event princess, and a slow forum poster. But her blog is one of the most successful of all Second Life blogs, and she is an influential thinker about general Second Life themes. She was also involved with the Kuurian Expedition, which includes Poinky Malaprop, Grace McDunnough, and Frank Koolhaas, as described in a link below. ==Gwyneth Llewelyn in Real Life== In real life she was born in Lisbon, Portugal. Her education was specialised on 3D visualisation of distributed networked systems. Between 1993 and 2007 she launched several start-ups, many related to Internet business, others to more traditional business models (on-demand kitchen production, handicrafted tiles). In technological companies she runs F&A, marketing, promotion, or sales; in non-technological ones, she runs the IT department. As a company grows in size, she makes sure all these areas are filled by professionals and focuses on providing IT consultancy. She has recently set up Beta Technologies, a RL company doing projects in SL, together with Eggy Lippmann, Moon Adamant and Tateru Nino. She also does educational and cultural projects in Second Life, mostly for non-profits and charities who use computers to give young people/senior citizens a better life. ==Links== *Blog: http://gwynethllewelyn.net *Wikia article (mostly by her): http://secondlife.wikia.com/index.php/Gwyneth_Llewelyn *Photos on flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gwyneth_llewelyn/ *Article about Kuurian Expedition: http://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2006/12/gwynneth_llewel.html *Article about crowdsourcing: http://crowdsourcing.typepad.com/cs/2006/08/second_life_and.html *Article about volunteering: http://volunteeringinsl.wordpress.com/2007/01/03/new-sl-volunteer-wiki-will-be-linden-sponsored/ *Page on linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/in/gwynethllewelyn *OnXiam page: http://www.onxiam.com/people/Gwyneth%20Llewelyn *Page at Beta Technologies: http://betatechnologies.info/2006/09/15/gwyneth-llewelyn/ [[Category:Avatars]]
