  • What is the point? http://www.misslaowaichina.org #
  • In the footer of the John Wycliffe Wikipedia entry (http://ow.ly/sWyz) is “see also: Wyclef Jean.” Hilarious. @RyanqNorth #
  • I want an irony mark! :( http://bit.ly/4ou7jY #
  • [博]Slow Chinese http://zuosa.net/1mg2.u   #
  • 在“做啥网”上跟随了 @niubi http://zuosa.com/niubi   #
  • Revising my Mandarin #Ani deck. I have neglected it for months, and concluded that I was entering vocabulary that wasn’t cool/useful enough. #
  • Brad Ferguson is performing with his wife at 育音堂! classic!   #
  • Reading Google’s side of the Google Books story: http://bit.ly/16Usre #
  • Just saw 9. Brilliant, imaginative, oddly spiritual animated film. Check it out. Youku: http://j.mp/2f0K3a | imdb: http://j.mp/10nB2o #
  • Anyone got recommendations for a good Google #Android blog to stay on top of the latest news about it? #
  • The Google.cn music player is really slick… playlists, perfect buffering, and even scrolling lyrics that highlight the current line! #
  • 每次听萧亚轩的《爱的主打歌》都听成《爱的猪大哥》。(还是“猪大哥”有意思啊!)   #
  • These China Telecom ads inserted into the pages I browse are SO ANNOYING. Just when you think the Chinese internet can’t get worse… #
  • I finally got my #Google Wave invite! Whoo-hoo! (Now to see if I can figure out what it is and how it might be useful…) #
  • Google Wave seems to be making extensive use of videos for teaching users how to use it (good), but they’re all blocked in China (bad). #GFW #
  • Just got a comment from a reader on Sinosplice reporting native speaker use of the question: “O不OK?” instead of “好不好?” Nice! #
  • RT @frankyu: At big Chinese rock concerts, this is what you see http://www.flickr.com/photos/frankyu/4006805114/sizes/m/ LOL #
