Google mum on plans for Google.cn search engine | The Australian - 0 views

  • No area of business in China is more politically sensitive than the internet, or more heavily regulated. China bars foreign companies from owning an “internet content provider” licence to deliver services in the country. For that, Google needed to partner with a Chinese company, which holds the ICP licence from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, to provide its services in China.
  •  
    A GROUP of Google's partners in China have sent an impassioned plea to the internet giant, saying their businesses are in jeopardy if Google closes its Chinese search engine, and demanding to know how they will be compensated.
  •  
    The deal has been done, it's only the matter of how Googld deal with those partners and its financial problem accordingly.

Google.cn search engine close to being shut down in China | The Australian - 0 views

  • Google's closure of Google.cn would leave the internet in China almost entirely dominated by local companies.
  • That helps the Chinese government's efforts to control information, because it can more easily control local companies, but it means foreign participation in one of the fastest-growing parts of China's economy will be limited, and it leaves Chinese users increasingly isolated.
  • Beijing wouldn't go that far because it would risk infuriating millions of users.
  •  
    GOOGLE appears increasingly likely to close down its Chinese-language search engine, in a step that would remove one of the last major foreign players from the world's most populous and fastest-growing internet market.
  •  
    Even with existing knowledge of the limitation that China government has in term of internet, I still find this quite surprising. Funny enough that as a Taiwanese, we've been taught that how strickly and misarable our Chinese friends live there; as years go by, we've been told again that what our old belief of our Chinese friends is no long true and those people are actuallly "set free." Apparently, there are still lots of unbelievable limits for our Chinese friends in internet wise.

Crib Sheet: Google Vs. China (Vs. Australia?) | Technomix | Fast Company - 1 views

  •  
    Some great analysis and summary from Fast Company on Google pulling the plug on their Chinese search engine, and how this relates to their submission to the Australian Government regarding their proposed ISP filtering. If you're not familiar with Fast Company, this is how they modestly describe themselves: "Fast Company sets the agenda, charting the evolution of business through a unique focus on the most creative individuals sparking change in the marketplace. By uncovering best and "next" practices, the magazine and website help a new breed of leader work smarter and more effectively. Fast Company empowers innovators to challenge convention and create the future of business."

Google mulls options for China | The Australian - 0 views

  •  
    GOOGLE is considering a plan to keep many of its operations in China, even though it is resigned to closing its flagship search engine over a censorship dispute with the Chinese authorities.
  •  
    I reckon, google is still waiting for the time to cut in, after all it's the biggest market.

Press release: .TV domain name auction - 0 views

  •  
    SEDO (Search Engine for Domain Offers) has partnered with VeriSign (the operator of the valuable .com and .net gTLDs, amongst other network inrastructure) to conduct a .TV auction between 1 April - 8 April 2010. Having a semiotic association with rich media content and a memorable quality, it seems likely the auction will attract bids from brand names already harnessing rich media content and looking to capitalise on new revenue streams that the expansion of gTLDs offers. Reserves will be around $5000 for each auctioned name ( a list of all names can be found at http://sedo.com/search/searchresult.php4?auctionevent=tvPremium&tracked=&partnerid=&language=us ) causing some annoyance amongst those who have already made costly .TV purchases in excess of the reserved price.
