Day2 - Ubiquitous house

We saw the house of the future (or not so far future in Korea), computer operated house controls, RFID chips telling you about food in the fridge, cool speakers and home entertainment systems, things on the street that allow you to scan ads and locate stores in the area to buy the products, robots (some creepier than others, better than Rosie from the Jetsons!!!), the list keeps going on....

they took a picture of us when we came in (see below) and on the way out, we were given tose pics, framed!!!!

Day2 - Davie Catch gets cold called

If you thought that cold calling was fair game only in school, you were wrong!!!! The Minister cold called our dear mate, Davie Catch to answer the question "why has Korea been successful in developing the amazing internet related infrastructure". Mr. Catch did us proud. His answer was better than the ones we are used to hearing at the GSB!! Thanks for doing us proud Davie......
