Who's Danny Kim?
basic info 2008/01/16 01:15Some people have been emailing me asking who I am, what I do and stuff. Just thought I might have a brief introduction of myself here. I mean "relatively brief" :)
- Born in Korea, educated in U.S. from high school up to graduate school,
- A computer science major,
- Been back in Korea since 2003,
- Worked for a great company named Samsung SDS for about 4 years,
- Then quit the great company to become a full-time blogger (the first one in Korea as far as I know),
- Known as the "Web 2.0 Evangelist" in Korea for my passion and enthusiasm for the changes related to "Web 2.0",
- Blogger behind Taewoo's Log (Taewoo is my Korean name), one of the most widely read blogs in Korea with nearly 6,000 RSS subscribers, covering various aspects of the Web: technical, social, economic and legal,
- Enjoying his last year as twenty-something before turning the big 3-0,
- Author of the recently published book Meconomy, which examines the new economic landscape shaped by the Web with individuals being the powerful suppliers,
- Currently works part-time as the global marketer for openmaru (more on this later), running its English blog,
- A regular contributor to Korea Herald on "multiculturalism", starting in late January,
- And loves Korea, Music (esp. piano), NBA, all kinds of Asian food, and Jesus.
Since I took a big break from all knowledge-gaining activities late last year for personal reasons, I've been trying to fill up my knowledge buffer before I start pumping out great stuff about Korea. So just a little bit more patience, then you shall receive much :)
Always, thank you all!
