Short summary of Web 2.0 seminar
from 852signal - Hong Kong Web 2.0 by Angus Lau
I was at a Web 2.0 seminar here in Hong Kong yesterday(25.7.2007) and heard more from speakers about what Web 2.0 is and isn’t. This was the pattern of the previous conference and this seminar. However, this seminar did include a company, m-gen,
that discussed Mobile 2.0 topics. Mobile 2.0 in Hong Kong is a topic
that I have yet to touch on and profile. I do know (ok, I lied, it’s
more like an assumption) that there aren’t too many startups here and
the market is up for grabs to anyone.
Talking Web 2.0 in Hong Kong
It was also fun chatting with a group of people who are doing some very interesting work for Outblaze
here in Hong Kong. They are now running a blogging platform for Sanrio
- which means Hello Kitty and everything in her family. I bet you
didn’t know that Hello Kitty fans are now blogging
in droves on a pretty sophisticated Wordpress Multiuser platform, with
video editing and other media creation tools included.� And they’re not
all fluff all the time.. one of them writes about Hong Kong censorship and the environment when not enthusing about the latest Hello Kitty gear. (Disclosure: Outblaze CEO Yat Siu is a friend of mine and Sanriotown sponsors the Japanese translation section on Global Voices.)
