Michael Kim

I’ve been product manager for Korean branch of Microsoft, Overture, took care of Internet Explorer 4.x, Windows Media Technology, MSN, Advertiser Platform’s localization and market launch. Long time apple fan boy since my first Apple II computer, now developing iPhone apps derived from Tweetie2’s near by tap and Foursquare. I want to make simplified version of Tweetie2’s near by tap, with flavor of Foursquare but no signup or ‘where my friends are’, check-in fatigue. People can freely build their own BBS on the map and talk without revealing where exactly they are now. This one’s called, Nemo, coming in mid-June. (Nemo means ‘Square’ in Korean. Map, Screen are all square and sounds adventurous :)

At the same time, I want to go further with Foursquare’s gaming aspect. This one’s called ‘King of Parking’, dynamic competition of Parking and Bombing in real location with check-ins. KOP’s coming by the end of June for US release.
