Headed for China 1.0 by cogdogblog

Chinatown in San Francisco is always a fun place to "visit" but in a few hours I am headed for the real deal or China 1.0, boarding a plane at SFO that will teleport me directly (well 12 hours directly) to Shanghai, where later in the week I am attending/participating in the Learning 2.008 conference.
Excited is an understatement for my first visit to Asia, and this is leg 1 of 3. Following this is a week in Hong Kong and another one in Japan.
And no jokes about how they adore dogs in China, ok?
And for some reason I cannot pass the irony that the entrance here to Chinatown is on “Bush” street, where the welcome sign is “Do not walk” 😉
Look for the volume of photo flow to escalate from me– well if the proxy suggestion from Wes Freyer works behind the wall.
Well if the proxy setting doesn’t work just use Posterous to email your blog posts and photos to Flickr. And so easy on an iPhone — but will that work outside USA?
Hi, Alan,
Heard from Mr. P. Delaney that you would come here for a conference. If possible I would like very much to meet and share some time with you here in Shanghai or at Fudan.
I now teach online journalism to 48 international students at Fudan J School, using WordPress. I think it would be extremely great to have you at my class for a short talk. My class is on Tuesday morning every week.
My cellphone number is 13661818055 in Shanghai.
See you soon.
Best
Robert
Twitter and flickr so far are working from hotel. I have an international plan for the iPhone but want to be skimpy with it, paying per kb charges (probably like everyday for you)
