Blogging Sweeps China
An anonymous reader writes "Dissident astro-physicist, Xiao Qiang, director of the China Internet Project at UC Berkeley, interviews Isaac Mao, founder of CNBlog for New Scientist. Asked what is his strategy to expand blogging under China's censorship regime, Mao's response is typically Taoist: 'What is our strategy? We do not have a strategy. But the information flow in the blogosphere has its own Way. The Way is our strategy: personal, fast, connected and networked.'"

He believed in a door. He must find that door. The door was the way to... to...
The Door was The Way.
Good.
Capital letters were always the best way of dealing with things you didn't have a good answer to.
Sounds like an IBM ad!
Tomorrows news.
China blocks all blog sites.
I like muppets.

"Encyclopedia" is to "Wikipedia" what "Library" is to "Some people at a bus stop"

I think they forgot "...and censored, too."
I've heard that Godiva Chocolate is better than sex. Maybe you could try that.
Haha. but seriously...
I got up this morning and took a shit so that I could survive until the next time I had sex.
I took the dog out because owning another creature raises the possibility of having sex with another interested human.
I made blueberry muffins because eating is fundamental to survival, and attracting the opposite sex with a special skill like cooking is important to having sex.
I checked my email in order to 1) answer emails from friends who may introduce me to future sex partners, and 2) make money which increases the chances that I have sex.
I updates some DNS zones because it increases the possibility of having sex with women who may understand what that is.
I had coffee because I like coffee and what I like is reflected in my outlook of the day, and if I look happy and content my possibility to havce sex increases.
I brushed my teeth because it increases my chances of having sex.
I checked the forum that I moderate because there might be a female posting which I can attract with moderation points. I may also be able to increase my sexual attractiveness by making myself more well-rounded.
I spent the day idling on IRC and browsing because there might be a chance that a female may log onto IRC, and there is always the possibility of rubbing one out to some internet porn (not quite sex, but a reasonable approximation).
Yes. All about sex.
shouldn't that be "brogging"?
Rubbish, I took a shit because bowell problems are painful.
Some people hate animals!
What garbage. I made muffin because I like it, generally I don't cook.
because, faceless automation and system log files are a great way of meeting new sexual partners?
I don't think so
Wrong, I drink coffee beause I'm heavily addicted to caffine. Shaking, twitching and having foul coffee breath doesn't increase the possibility of me having sex at all.
I brush my teeth because tooth decay is painful
No, I checked the forum, hosted on my server, because it's me that gets to deal with the legal threats and complaints if I don't.
Why the fuck would I be looking for sexual partners on IRC where it's impossible to determine gender?
No it isn't.
Somehow I'm a little skeptical of the "meh, it'll all work out by itself in the end" style of planning

Great that those bloggers are lending a hand! With the economic expansion and lack of time and all, the dust has really been piling up in the corners lately.
Trust the Computer. The Computer is your friend.
