Robert Capili is a dancer and software developer who has been working with the internet since 1992. He started his first internet consulting company while in college and served as the first online editor for the Oklahoma Daily.
After earning a degree in Letters, he moved west to pursue fame and fortune in the tech boom of the 90's. During that time, he wrote articles for Wired online, spoke at conferences, and consulted for various companies, large and small.
Tired of the cold water surf, Rob moved to Hawaii in 2000 in order to enjoy better waves and warmer weather.
While working in Honolulu, he designed and built one of the world's first mobile MLS systems, allowing real estate agents full access to listing data on their cell phones and PDA's. He also developed content management systems that were used to power projects for the government of Japan, Hilton Hawaiian Village, YellowPages.com, and Bank of Hawaii.
Rob is currently the Chief Technologist for Voice of Dance. He enjoys using new and emerging technologies to create interesting applications that are fun to use and profitable to deploy. Current areas of interest include social networking, geolocation, and monetization. Rob's work has been cited in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal Online, front page of Digg and other publications of ill repute.
When he is not programming, he enjoys dancing Salsa, training Jiu Jitsu, and spending time with his wife and kids.
