South Pacific Web Mapping

Had an interesting biz tour in Seoul last month, pretty amazing growth in terms of GDP and Internet usage, once there LG and Samsung seems to be just the tip of the iceberg when looking into the local devices, service providers and wireless data infrastructure.

web mapping capabilities and internet UI (animation and front-end stuff) still has lots of potential giving the fact that the local script (Hangul) is all left to right with a nice reasonable 24 character set.. and could run Joomla almost out of the box!!

I have done a few speed/load tests from downtown Seoul, lots of router hops on a really good link, latency to NZ/AU was pretty big though..
