Taewoo Danny Kim dropped by our office the other day. Danny is, among many hats he's wearing now, the author of Technokimchi blog (in English) and the classic "Taewoo's log" (in Korean).

Now he's ready to add another item to his "Authored by Danny" list - a book. The book's title will be "Meconomy" - what a catchy name. On the book, he'll talk about the new web and its influence over the economy. The book will be published in Korean. I wanted to write a reference for the book but I've given the honor to my partner Chester.

Now that Taewoo's done with his book project, he'll soon break out of the radio silence. Expect lots more action from TechnoKimchi.

A fresh start of Web 2.0 Asia

Today I met my friend Taewoo Danny Kim (who happens to be the #1 tech blogger in Korea) over dinner, and he said I should pick up the pace of my blogging. I said I'm dying to blog, but as a startup CEO I can't find time to blog at all.

But on second thought, perhaps I might have taken blogging too seriously. Maybe all it takes is to jot down my observations on Korean and Asian Web innovations in a paragraph or two, in a very casual, tongue-in-cheek voice. (Robert Scoble style, maybe?)

Last week, I was visited by a French video blogger named Thierry Bezier. He's had interviews with some big name tech guys from companies like Google, Flickr, Wordpress, and Feedburner. He came to Korea for interviews and I was the first person he contacted - Thierry cited my blog as "the only possible source he could find for information on the Asian web 2.0." I should admit his comment is a bit overrated but I was quite flattered anyway, and comments like his challenge me greatly for kickstarting my blogging again.

Thanks Taewoo and Thierry. By the way, Taewoo Kim is considering about starting a pan-Asian tech blog network in English. Taewoo speaks and writes in English on a native level. Wish all the great success for him, and hope he will invite me as one of the authors.
