For the coming days, I'll blog about these:
Open social conference Korea 2008: This conference is held on June 12, hosted by ID Tail (No English page unfortunately), a spin-off from Ahnlab (Korea's prominent security software company) that is dedicated for rolling out apps based on open social and other open web technologies. The reason why you shouldn't shrug off this conference as just one of the numerous other open social conference is that ID Tail is being regarded by many as the best commercial implementation of open social technologies.
Update on the Open Web Asia '08: Though I've been quiet about this conference so far, a number of people have been working hard on making this conference happen, and there are many exciting updates. We have the dates and venue (October 14th, Seoul Korea, Sheraton Walker Hill) and have partnered with one of the Asia's most prestigious conferences. Programs and potential speaker lineup is being worked up by some leading bloggers and industry experts in and around the Asian web industry. Oh, I almost forgot to say the conference will be called the Open Web Asia '08. Stay tuned.
OECD Ministerial meeting: I was honored to contribute an article to Korea Times special edition, the only official media material to be distributed during the OECD Ministerial meeting held in Seoul next week. The theme of this meeting is "The Future of the Internet Economy", and my contribution, titled "Walled Garden: a Double-edged Sword", will talk about Naver and more. After the embargo, I'll put the whole article on this blog.
Business Blog Summit '08: I'll be participating and speaking at the Business Blog Summit '08, a conference looking at how blogs are changing the business in general. Lots of web and PR folks are coming. My talk will focus on the new blogging service we've been working on the past several months, Textcube.com (yeah, between blogging and conference organizing, I do have a day job :-) ). I'll try and post the insights learned from the conference.
