Facebook Engineer Behind ?Presence? Is Turning The Concept Into A Standalone Company

Screen Shot 2012-05-01 at 10.41.40 AMOne of the geeky, cute contraptions of the early Facebook days was a web-enabled beer keg at company headquarters. Whenever an employee swiped their RFID badge on it, a camera would snap a photo of them pouring a beer and post a status update to Facebook. Whenever it ran low on beer, the keg would post pictures of BevMo to Facebook as a desperate refill reminder. Even though Facebook's beer keg world domination plans never played out, the technology behind the keg, called Presence, may still show up in the wild.?That's because one of the engineers behind Presence, John Stockdale, is starting a company around the concept. It's aptly named Presence.
