It's Mashup Time In Korea

Developers in Korea are enjoying a four month long series of events that comprise Mashup Contest Korea 2008 (November 2007 - February 2008). At the first major event in late November, the Yahoo! Korea engineering team introduced the Korean AJAX Maps API and geocoding web service, and helped developers with the Flickr API which has had Korean language API documentation and a consumer front-end since last June. Yahoo! Korea also showed off their beautiful consumer maps implementation based on their AJAX Maps API. The event included a vendor expo and a conference. More than 150 developers and hundreds of users visited the Yahoo! booth at the event where many vendors showed off their API efforts (check out more photos from the expo and the conference sessions). Although the winning mashups for Mashup Contest Korea 2008 won't be chosen until February, you can sample last year's winners here which included this Del.icio.us and Y! Search mashup.

Wow. It's me wearing t-shirt signed "mashup". Thanks to Y!DN. Major Korean internet companies has continually opened their web APIs including Yahoo! Korea. I hope the good ecosystem will be spreaded via these cooperative activities.
