Spending time with Jeremiah Owyang
The last few days have been a blur organising the HK Web Community bloggers event at Prive.
From various accounts, it was a very good turnout. Jeremiah Owyang who is going to start a new career with Forrester Research as social computing senior analyst, was very gracious with his time and tried to absorb a lot of what is happening in the Hong Kong web community by meeting as many people as he could
