Global Voices Online » China: Time to pray - 0 views

  • China: Time to pray Friday, May 16th, 2008 @ 21:42 UTC by John Kennedy
  • ‘Pray for the disaster victims, god bless China' has been the main motif on many main Chinese blogging websites as the country moves past the hundredth hour of mourning, fund-raising and blood donations.
  • The MeMedia collective has being doing in Chinese for total coverage of Earthquake discussions what the crew at Shanghaiist have been doing in English; among all the links MeMedia has been aggregating and sharing publicly on Diigo has been the last blog post from a teacher in Beichuan who didn't survive the earthquake, photos of a school sports activity from May 11.

  • Blogger Oliver Ding has set up a community space on SlideShare for those affected by and working against the damage done by the earthquake, one of the many ways to help the earthquake victims that in turn is being shown support on Digg.
  • Support for relief efforts from English-language bloggers has been equally swift and thorough. Overall support for Red Cross China has been so strong that accessing the Red Cross website for the past several days has been difficult due to the high volumes of traffic it has been receiving. In no particular order, here are just a few of the many blog posts foreign and English-language bloggers in China have given us in just a few hectic days: http://www.ifgogo.com/80/how-to-donate/ http://cnreviews.com/uncategorized/china_earthquake_relief_and_donation_guide_-_will_update_20080514.html http://cupofcha.com/2008/05/16/ways-to-donate-to-earthquake-relief.html http://www.chinavortex.com/2008/05/how-chinese-websites-are-helping-donations-for-sichuan-earthquake-victims/ http://shanghaiist.com/2008/05/13/red_cross_society_earthquake_sichuan.php http://beijingbookworm.com/whatsnew.htm http://www.pandapassport.com/chinese-internet/donate-for-adspace/ http://www.lostlaowai.com/commentary/blog/2008/05/15/add-a-quake-relief-donation-badge-to-your-blogsite/ http://rconversation.blogs.com/rconversation/2008/05/help-chinas-qua.html http://chinesepod.com/earthquake_relief http://shanghaiist.com/2008/05/16/green_scene_how.php

Scobleizer - Tech geek blogger » Blog Archive Twittering the earthquake in Ch... - 0 views

  • How did I do that? Well, I was watching Twitter on Google Talk. Several people in China reported to me they felt the quake WHILE IT WAS GOING ON!!! Over the next two hours I pointed at anyone who had info about the quake on my Twitter account. It’s amazing the kind of news you can learn by being on Twitter and the connections you can make among people across the world. I fear a large casualty loss. The epicenter was 50 miles from Chengdu, which has about 10.5 million residents. Already reports are coming across of buildings that have been knocked down.
  • UPDATE: Online Journalism Blog has a lot more details about what happened on Twitter tonight. From the Frontline blog has even more. UPDATE2: Global Voices Online has links to videos and other Twitter and blog reports. UPDATE3: here’s a timeline of what first Tweets looked like.

  • As a Chinese, I feel so heart-broken to see my compatriots suffering from the horrendous tragedy and deeply touched by the bravery and resolve of the Chinese people during the rescuing efforts. I wish I could be right there in the middle of it all, lifting concrete to find survivors. While what I can do is limited so far away from China, I just embedded this banner which has already connected almost 200,000 bloggers to pray for the victims in the disaster region on my blog.

China IWOM Blog - Post details: CIC receives investment - 0 views

  • CIC has received a round of strategic investment. Since our start 3 years ago, we have seen substantial interest from investors in our technology, methodology and team.
  • The team is led by Marc van der Chijs, co-founder of Tudou (the investment has NO relationship to Tudou). Individuals in the group have experience in Internet Word of Mouth (IWOM) industry in the West, raising capital in China, taking Chinese companies IPO, Chinese online gaming as well as experience in more traditional industries within China
  • CIC has experienced phenomenal growth in the last 3 years and we see no signs of this letting up. We started providing IWOM research and consulting well before anyone in China really knew what that was, and as the marketing communications industry wakes up to IWOM”s impact and importance, we expect our growth to continue. We are fortunate to have ongoing strategic relationships with the most innovative and interesting companies in the world, some lasting 3 years

Thanks to all who spread the world and Oliver Ding who even made a slideshow.

Mainstream imminent? Twitter traffic almost doubled from February to April » ... - 0 views

  • For U.S. visitors, traffic has almost doubled from February to April alone. The service is now pulling in nearly 1.2 million people per month. Twitter is growing very fast, and just as we’ve noted, Compete believes Twitter’s recent coverage in the mainstream press (for events like helping the American student get out of jail in Egypt and coverage of the China earthquake) is helping to fuel this growth.

  • When I logged on to my desktop Twitter application (sad, I know) it was alive with Tweets about the earthquake in China. Most of them were from the celebrated technology blogger Robert Scoble, who is famous, perhaps notorious, for receiving a Twitter message every second of the day. He is based in California, but thousands of miles away from the quake he was providing breaking news about it, linking to sites like the BBC and the New York Times, even providing a first picture - though how authentic that is remains to be seen. He now claims that Twitter had the breaking news even before the United States Geological Survey, which provides early warnings of seismic events.

Jayhan Loves Design & Japan » If You Are Able To Survive You Must Remember Th... - 0 views

  • This is not a design or Japan related post, but it is so sad and touching that I had to share it with my blog readers. I came across is tearing slide presentation at SlideShare, about a mother protecting her child in the recent earthquake disaster in Sichuan China. Unfortunately the mother was dead because of the hard objects hitting on her. But the rescuer found out that there is a baby under her child and quickly get him out. The child was fine, thanks to his mother. Then the rescuer found a hand phone near the baby and on the screen, it says “My dearest child, if you are able to survive you must remember that I Love You”. This is such a sad story. In the earthquake that struck last week, it already taken so many people’s life (40,000 and counting), and every life behind there is a family, and there is a story to tell. If there is no earthquake, maybe they are enjoying their life right now with friends and family. But the earthquake just ruined it all. I hope everyone can pray and hope for Sichuan so that everything will become OK. And my respect to all the rescuers and medics and many more unsung heroes who are restless and working hard to save more life.

The Charity Place: Social networks take word of mouth to a global level - 0 views

  • I’m still totally captivated by the enormous possibilities of social media to share ideas and information, and am inspired to post (yet again) on the subject of how people are using them to come together and do good – because I’ve been motivated to give in the last few days via Twitter.

    Just look at what Jeremiah Owyang has started through his blog and through his Twitter feed, which Oliver Ding then turned into this presentation on Slideshare...

  • I'm sorry to say that I had previously received an approach from two charities - one via Facebook and the other by email - but hadn't yet made a donation.  However, Jeremiah's Twitter message changed that. Charities, take note...
  • There are at least 30 people who have indicated they’ve given through Jeremiah’s updates on Twitter, and more – no doubt – who have given privately.

  • The images of the earthquake relief effort in China have been horrifying and deeply moving and remind me what has always been so compelling about my job - the ease and speed with which still pictures can impart so much readily understood information to so many people.

  • Jeremiah: Paul Denlinger of Beijing is an internet expert on China, and I’ve offered him the opportunity to help share from an insiders perspective. Keeping in the theme of internet strategy and how the web impacts business, (and in this case the world) Paul, a resident of China, shares his perspective. Although a long post, please show him the same respect that you do for me.

  • My friend updated me fast on the social networks he uses: apparently he relies mostly on Facebook after having dumped Twitter. As I followed this story via my Twitter account, Twitter developed in just a few hours into an excellent information tool, combining different sources of information. I knew more about the earthquake than many people in China.
