Ahhh, finally. A clear view of Fuji. Covered in snow. Actually, all of Tokyo is clear today.

Back in Japan now. Excellent trip to China last week.
|
|
In Fuzhou tonight.
|
|
Met about 80 students last nite. 3 of us talked about the OpenSolaris distro, community, and web stack. Great fun. English skills high here.

@leroyli Actually, I've now gotten a wide variety of population estimates: 10 million. 5 million. 4 million. 2 million. :) Interesting.

Spent time with masters students from the U. of Science & Tech in Hefei. Impressive. They are very interested in learning about the west.
|
|
In Hefei, China tonight. Interesting place. Not many westerners around. They tell me it's "a small city." Only 10 million people. Small?

It's amazing what a second set of eyes can catch in your writing.

Planning a trip to Korea next month to see the OSUG there.
|
|
Took a lot of TLUG images yesterday http://tinyurl.com/6zqsc9. Most came out pretty well, I think.

Updated to OpenSolaris build 101a. Smooth.
|
|
Finally got build 100 of OpenSolaris on here. Had problems updating (bug + user error) so I did a fresh install. Works nice now.

Discussion re the gap between Japan and others in an age of open networks (lang, culture, etc). Very interesting. JP community more closed.
|
|
Joi is a good moderator. Very conversational. Ties things together well.

@davest I'm not a fan of pols. Have some personal experience with them (on both sides). :)

@jon_ellis Sure. The *people* are divided and have been for a long time. But the power elite is not. It has shifted. It will not be shared.

Flannery: "Striking similarities around the world how women deal with finances." (paraphrase) Amazing.

@jon_ellis The popular vote matters little (read: GWB). The power has now shifted and the GOP is dead. Would be nice to see them in jail now
