How The Internet Will Impact China
from the well,-it-will-make-a-few-people-rich... dept
Salon is running a review of a new book about how the internet will impact China, called China Dawn. They say that it's well written, and tells some interesting stories - but that those stories are about these movers and shakers on the Chinese internet scene who are buddies of the author. The book seems to ignore everyone in China who actually uses the internet - and who might provide an interesting perspective. Still sounds like an interesting book, though.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
