Hello World, this time for real

This has been on my to-do list forever, but I'm finally doing it this time for real: I'm starting my own Blogger blog.

Guess what I do for a living. I'm a product manager at Google, and my product is no other than... Blogger. Yet I didn't eat my own dogfood enough and didn't keep my personal blog at Blogger.

Yes, I'm a longtime blogger, but I was blogging mostly on Tistory and Textcube -- the Korean blogging services developed by TNC, the company that I served as a co-CEO and later got acquired by Google. Also I've written dozens of posts for Blogger's official blog, obviously running on Blogger, but they don't really count because they're not my "personal" blogs.

So here I'm embarking on my much belated journey of blogging on Blogger - you're better late than sorry. On this blog, I'll write about these things:

• Blogger, blogging
• Life at Google and Silicon Valley
• Product management
• Interesting web services from Asia (continuing on Web 2.0 Asia, but the Asian web won't be the central theme of this blog) 
• Bunch of other stuff, possibly with photos

Printing "hello world" on screen is often one of the most important milestones in programming. Likewise, this first post will hopefully be a good start of many posts to come.
