IBM has been showing off some of the tech at its research and development labs at Hursley near Winchester.

silicon.com went along to take a look at, among other things, a mash-up wiki, IBM's version of Second Life and a web 2.0 retail application.

Above is the Hursley House, the stately home in which IBM's UK R&D operations are based. The Spitfire engine was developed here by previous occupants, Vickers.
