    I actually wondered about that myself. Of all the places where China is improving, the software side is stagnant, mostly due to lack of investment in R&D since bootlegging is such a big issue. Software designers are much better at creating smaller applications or Asianize American ideas, but nothing original is really coming out.

    Chinas version of instant messengers is much better than any american counter part imo.

    QQ, you can chat, play games (aol supports QQ games I think), listen to music, video, remote desktop, cut a image file anywhere on your screen and paste it on the chat window...it's pretty ****ing rad.

    I wonder when Microsoft is going to rip them off and start copying all the features of QQ.

    If I was going to tank the prospects of a search engine I would not allow people to search for p*rn on it.

    Well done!

    Tonight on Hulu they're having some kind of live show to celebrate Bing. I don't really care for Bing, I'm fine with my Google, but Olivia Munn from G4 and Jason Sudeikis from SNL are hosting so I will probably check it out since we are in full rerun and lame summer show mode right now.

    Also, Bing is sponsoring everything on Hulu right now, so no commercial breaks for today at least.

    Upon removing the Safe Search Option via the "Extras" link, the Video Searches for "sex" and "anal" appear to be in good working order.
