Mask of China: Redux

Some of you may know my friend Derrick’s blog, Mask of China. Starting out in Dalian back in 2003, it has since followed its master to Hong Kong where it has continued to be a fixture of the Sinosphere. It was with moist eyes that I heard Derrick (Dezza) was hanging up his blogging cap, …

Unblock Flickr In China

John over at Sinosplice was nice enough to tune me in to Access Flickr!, a little gem of a Firefox plugin that lets all us Flickr photo viewers unfortunate enough to be subject to the schitzo ‘on again off again (more off again)’ whims of the Great Firewall of China once again see the images.

Hao Hao Report: New Look – New Features

As many of you likely know, I run a couple other sites, one of them being The Hao Hao Report. HHR is a social bookmarking site for all us sinophiles that just love reading blog posts and news about China. Essentially it works the same as other social bookmarking sites (digg, netscape, del.ico.us, etc.), whereby …

Girls of the English-language China Blogsphere

I got to chatting with Chris while I was up in Dalian, and we were talking about how the English-language China Blogsphere is a little under-represented by those double-X darlings some (misleadingly) call the ‘fairer’ sex… I quickly mentioned Meg, who’s now returned to the wilds of Americana to live happily ever after with WoW …

Linktastic V

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Linktastic entry (though a bunch of other posts have started to pollute the category). Anyway, I’ve a few sites/stories I’ve run across lately that deserve mention, but I can’t seem to muster the words/time for an entire post about each one. A victory for Wangs the world …

Time To Face The Book

After endless pestering from my friend Sarah, I’ve finally jumped on the Facebook bandwagon. I’m not a huge fan of social networking sites, mostly as I’ve just been over exposed to them. From back in the day when my friends were on Campus Kiss, and then migrated to Friendster and MySpace and now they all …

I Think, There For I Meme

So, there’s this meme floating around that anyone who reads any other English-language blogs about China has undoubtedly seen. I first saw it on China Law Blog, and have been re-reading it on everyone else’s blog for the last few days as it spreads through the blogsphere quicker than an STD in a dorm. The …

Wedding Photo Gallery Update

I’ve had a bit of feedback regarding the Wedding Photo Gallery, and it appears that photos aren’t loading properly for some people. I’m not entirely sure if this is a Flash issue or what, but it’s prompted me to finally test out Google’s Picasa Web Albums. Check out that link if you’ve been having problems …

Buried…

I’m slowly digging myself out of the mire of crap I’ve had to put on hold for the last three or four weeks. I succeeded in a little test of not touching the Internet for the 10 days I was in Thailand. As someone that gets itchy when he hasn’t checked his e-mail in a …

Linktastic IV

Time for another edition of Linktastic. It’s tougher and tougher to list here links I think are great, when I just do that at the newly moved and renovated Hao Hao Report. However, I’ve got a couple things I think are worth checking out (and of course my usual updates about what I’ve been writing …

Hao Hao Report

Hey, just a quick post regarding my little HHR baby… it’s now got its own domain name and has gone through some cool upgrades. If you’re not too clear on what HHR is, check out the post regarding it at the Lost Laowai blog, or just go visit the site itself at the newly set …
