Accidentally stumple upon Squidoo today. I love the brilliant ideas on the internet. Web 2.0 ideas keep mushrooming. No wonder we are on the verge of another internet boom (or bubble depending on how you look at it).
Ning was cool for the PHP programmers, maybe someone techy inclined. But Squidoo, it’s for everyone! In minutes […]

Take a look at this, referer spam hits gain. Just got to live with it I guess.
How to know it is a spam? Look at the number of visiting sites, not much changes over the days. But look at the number of hits and volume, rocketed skyhigh on 10, 11, 21, 22. It means a […]

Published December 27th, 2005 in China and Online. 0 CommentsFull text of the regulation. All websites in China are now required to be registered with the authority. This had been enacted since mid of this year. Enforcement had been coming down and it is common to see site closure notice for non-compliance.

Catching up on Open Source
Published December 23rd, 2005 in Business Models and Open Source. 0 CommentsSpent most of this morning catching up with Open Source developments. More money are obviously being poured into Open Source. News.com has an article on this more than a month ago. Commented time and again, open source is still searching for business model.
Coming up with an open source application is getting more difficult in […]
The Chinese has one phase - 求才若渴, meaning thirsting for talent. Until one experiences it, it is diffcult to grasp the intricacies of seeking, hiring and retaining talents.
Seeking talents for a small company had always been a great challenge, if not the greatest. For a entrepreneur without financial support, it is as difficult as reaching […]
I met a German friend/client yesterday. Somewhere along the conversation, he gave a very apt description of a typical Chinese supplier mentality. We smiled and laughed heartily in agreement as we gave examples and experiences.
For lack of better name, I shall call it "The last mile syndome".
It is in the same vain but not to […]

My plan for 2006
Published December 16th, 2005 in Entrepreneur, Business Models and Online. 0 CommentsToday a brilliant idea struck me and got me working on it immediate. Rarely in recent times had I have such impluse.
If ideas are a dime a dozen, then what I thought of may well worth 30 cents (3 dimes). It wasn’t anything new though, just a repackage of what I had been doing, […]
Yesterday we were to deliver some products to a client. The person-in-charge blatantly claimed that it is beyond her responsibility and working hour. For that she is claiming "overtime pay" from us.
For a moment you would had think that it is absurd but anyone in China long enough would immediately know what that overtime pay […]
Interact long enough with any Chinese (here I mean China Chinese, not overseas Chinese like me) and you will find many of them well-versed with the 5000-over years of Chinese history. In particular, many will jump right in to discussion of what happened or should had happened with much vigor and authority.
