We all know about the "Great Firewall" of China that's designed both to keep certain website inaccessible from China, but which is also supposed to block certain content in China from reaching the outside world. While there already are some questions about how effective the Great Firewall really is, it does seem odd that the majority of "badware" sites are all hosted in China. Is it that China just doesn't care or is it that ...

If you publish a presentation at Google Docs, you'll receive a simple URL that can be used to view the presentation online. Unfortunately, if you go to that URL without being logged in to a Google Account, Google will ask you to log in:The explanation is that Google Presentations offers some advanced features that require authentication: chatting with other people that view the presentation and joining a presentation that's already in progress.

One section compares the products of the two: <<Both Google and Baidu are trying to leverage their network effects to promote other products.

Shared by forcey 开发工具其实并不能算一个理由，我最近用过的开发工具都是默认UTF-8的 有关 Web 字符编码的问题，已经是老生常谈。今天看到 一峰 兄弟和 Lunatic Sun 不谋而合的谈到有关 UTF-8 的使用现状，也谈谈我的看法。 上图是 Google 根据近年 Web 页面编码趋势的一个总结。我很欣喜的看到 UTF-8 编码已经成为了主流，而犹如 一峰 兄弟所言，让人堪忧的是中文字符编码还是呈现很平稳的趋势，这说明目前 UTF-8 编码并没有在中文网站中推广开来。 究其原因，本人认为会有如下几点： 第一，中文编码（无论是 GBK、GB2312、GB18030 等）都变成了“传统”，毕竟这是 中文 的编码。开发者不愿意在字符编码这块花太多的心思。 第二，由于早期项目的原因，不得不继续使用 GBK 等中文编码。 我曾经就遇到过这样的一个项目，当时我很奇怪他们为什么不用 UTF-8，因为他们面对的客户不仅仅是国内用户。而解决这一方案的办法就只能是使用非常劳累的手段，但这是指标不治本的办法。虽然最后，在本人的一再坚持下，最后还是转成了 UTF-8 编码，但相信国内还有很多项目都会碰到类似的问题。 第三，开发工具方面的支持，尤其是国内的一些产品。从根本上说，除了基本的思想意识以外，还有就是开发工具的问题。或许有一天，开发者相关的开发工具都默认的就是 Unicode 的话，这样转换的成本就会非常的低。 第四（感谢小马补充），流量大、文字多的中文站点通常都会使用 GB2312，原因很简单，页面下载量会比 UTF-8 小（GBK 编码只需要两个字节，而 Unicode 需要三个或者以上）。 那么，我经常使用的些主要的中文站点，目前在使用什么编码呢？下面是一个不完全的列表，供大家参考一下（以页面 meta 标签的 Content-type 为准）。 淘宝 - GB2312 支付宝 - GB2312 口碑 - GBK 中国雅虎 - GB2312 163 - GB2312 新浪 - GB2312 搜狐 - GB2312 豆瓣 ...

Google Reader's sharing feature was barely noticed when it was added, then it got more exposure when the shared items started to be broadcasted to Google Talk contacts and some sites aggregated shared posts. As Google Reader became more social, people discovered that it has some important limitations.

I've been hoping for this for some time. Nice move. Shared items is pretty good way of keeping tabs on the literati, I don't think that anyone else knows how it works yet. The question is does this nullify a lot of the behaviour of the blogosphere (which appears to be mostly linking and quoting someone else's story with a short comment on the end).Hopefully yes, because I'd really like to decouple the "blogosphere" from the "memeosphere" and get back to all original content in blogs rather than a host of me-too's trying to get first post so they get eyeballs on techmeme.

If an Internet user in China searches for the word "persecution," he or she is likely to come up with a link to a blank screen that says "page cannot be displayed." The same is true of searches for "Tibetan independence," "democracy movements" or stranger sounding terms such as "oriental red space time" -- code for an anti-censorship video made secretly by reporters at China's state TV station.
