== name2key conversion ==
One feature I feel is lacking in Linden Lab's world.secondlife.com application is the inability to easily look up another Resident's profile by entering their name. This is likely due to the application only meant to be accessed via the new search appliance.
 
Compare the following:
* '''world.secondlife.com'''
**[http://world.secondlife.com/resident/83b3987f-9520-4275-8efe-3ac13dd3f635 SignpostMarv Martin (by UUID)]
**[http://world.secondlife.com/resident/SignpostMarv+Martin SignpostMarv Martin (by name)]

== auto-discovery ==
Due to the lack of appropriate functionality in [[llRequestAgentData]]()- see {{Jira|VWR-2738}}- the data set I had at any one time is relatively limited to Residents that sign up for my services. I recently added the ability for the server to automatically attempt to get data on the Resident being requested.
 
Auto-discovery is currently enabled only on Resident profiles and regions.
 
== mentioned ==
Personally, I find that picks are one of the most under-used features of Second Life.
After a little bit of tweaking, I added the ability to see who has mentioned a Resident in their picks.
=== Examples ===
At the time of writing [[User:Torley Linden|Torley]]'s "mentioned" page is blank. Blank "mentioned" pages just mean that there are no picks in the local database that mentioned that Resident's name.
* [http://svc.sl.net.marvulous.co.uk/resident/SignpostMarv+Martin/mentioned SignpostMarv Martin]
* [http://svc.sl.net.marvulous.co.uk/resident/Philip+Linden/mentioned Philip Linden]
* [http://svc.sl.net.marvulous.co.uk/resident/Torley+Linden/mentioned Torley Linden]
