Welcome Back after Chinese New Years! Ready to Rock!
I remember being that frustrated American in USA….emailing factories and Chinese businesses during the months of Jan / Feb and getting nothing, no reply, not even a vacation autoresponder (well Chinese don’t really use email anyway…) ….and after over 4 years in China, I still “try” to get work done during Chinese new years….on the foreign (Western) side… doing conference …

Google May Have Left China, but it Learned from Baidu
Overall I like Google…but I can’t help to think they are getting to be more and more “evil” as an overall brand feeling.
