This is the first part of the new “What happened to…”-Series, which will be published at irregular intervals, meaning whenever I find an interesting story about an almost forgotten Star and his present situation.

Our first article will be dedicated to Wil Wheaton aka Wesley Crusher from Star Trek: The next Generation.
We’ve known Wil as the annoyingly smart and eager son of ship’s doctor Beverly Crusher. Many times he proved his braveness as well as his bad taste in fashion. But what is going on with Wil now? He is a professional geek!
Although he kept acting after TNG he took a quite interesting choice of work besides that: For some time he worked in a company developing Commodore Amiga software and became one of the first bloggers. He now maintains his own blog as well as he is writing for several other blogs or magazines (inter alia about RPG) and publishing long versions of his blog entries as books.

Well done, Wesley!
