Blogging Beijing: Birds Nest
posted by DL Byron on April 17, 2007
We’re here midway through the Intel Developer Forum Beijing and there’s much to discuss and share. Creating community in emerging markets is what we’re doing with Intel and all around me is the rapid pace of change. I’ll write more about that later this week and the flow, but you can see it here in the photos of the Olympic Stadium.
The Birds Nest is massive, stunningly massive. Watching the video I shot and seeing the construction of the complex surrounding the nest, I wondered how China will possibly be ready for the Olympics until Tony, an Intel China employee, reminded me to never underestimate the will of 1.3 billion people.
Will is right. A will to change.
