Currently locally hosted sites work – but if this goes on like last time – even they will fail because DNS will fail because there are no root servers for DNS in China, most registrars are also not in China and well… you get the idea. No point being able to connect if you do not know where to connect!

Published by August 17th, 2009 in China and Tech Horizon. 0 CommentsI went into my local China Mobile Shop and the accompanying China Unicom shop (next door) yesterday to get the wife a new phone.

Tweetup Beijing with Kevin Rose, Tim Ferriss and Glenn Mcelhose
Published by July 16th, 2009 in China. 0 CommentsAwesome night. Feeling a bit seedy now as I get ready for my 11am – however met a bunch of cool people that share this city with me and of course Kevin, Tim and Glen. Like most tech meet ups in China, Australians tend to me over represented – though I hope we were well behaved.
