Wow, many, if not most, popular Web 2.0 apps are cloned by the Chinese. And they're bringing them online fast.

ima: yeah, and most have been cloned multiple times. Now, though, the services are innovating on their own and adding some really unique things. Micropayments, for instance, are way ahead here in China vs. the US.

Interesting and yet kinda scary. US tech companies definitely need to be aware, if they're not already. As for me, I probably should move to China, the land of my ancestors, to start a Web 2.0 startup. :P

interesting, though its surprising something like it would be around in China with the Chinese government's censorship, namely seeing as how ours has labeled twitter as a potential terrorist tool, it'd seem they would be hesitate

BCK: Interesting to me is that neither China nor Iran have blocked FriendFeed. Both block my blog. I bet both services will get blocked eventually. FriendFeed is VERY fast in China, though, while Facebook is dreadfully slow.

it's a pure surprise to see Robert Scoble in Guangzhou(Canton). What a pleasure to talk to Robert about the Chinese Twitter: www.zuosa.com
