On Twitter this Week

November 30, 2009

  • HootSuite.com now blocked in the PRC (since yesterday). Bummer… :( #GFW #
  • RT @bokane: Google buys Tencent, pwns Baidu, changes name post-merger to Q-Goo, chat client name to GooGoo, online currency to Goo Bi. #
  • One year ago this day, a drunken youth leapt onto the hood of the car I was riding in, ran down the length, and fled, shouting obscenities. #
  • RT @stinson NYT OpEd > China: “The Nation of Futurity.” http://twurl.nl/q12vzz #
  • I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I have not blogged all week because I got a new PS3 game. http://bit.ly/4wzaQU #
  • RT @1rick: Awesome: “Please design a logo for me. With pie charts” http://trim.li/nk/Fj7 #
  • Today is like Shanghai SUPER SMOG day | RT @catherinnna: http://twitpic.com/r4zhp - Shanghai smog! #
  • Pull a piece of lint out of your pocket and ask a Chinese friend what it’s called, then report back. Thanks! #
  • Watching a demonstration of Moon Patrol on MAME on a Macbook with a PS3 controller. Sweet! #
  • RT @mranti: Rumored that Google China is quiting, staff are resigning. RT @linglingfa: 听传闻说谷歌内部离职的一大批,剩下的一小批正在准备离职。谷歌中国快要撤退了 #
  • “Asynchronous” in Chinese is 异步 (yìbù), but the average person doesn’t really know what it means. LOL #
  • RT @imagethief: I think my cats are asynchronous. I call them, maybe an hour later they wander over. Technically, tho, that might be latency #
