I just returned from the ICON2008 International Content Creator’s Conference<\/a> in Busan, Korea, which I was invited to attend as a keynote speaker. I was busy enough that I didn’t post while on the trip, but I’m going to break the trip down into a few different posts here.<\/p>\n

Most of my visit was spent at the conference – in addition to giving my talk, there were other interesting talks to attend, prep meetings, press interviews, a few meet-and-greet events, receptions and time touring the exhibition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
