Chinese Bloggers Boom

Blogging in China is increasing rapidly.

Chinese computer users

BEIJING, China (Reuters) -- The number of blog sites in China reached 34 million in August, a 30-fold increase from four years ago, state media said on Tuesday, despite a series of curbs on media and dissent.

China has more than 17 million people writing blogs (short for Web logs) and more than 75 million people reading them, Xinhua news agency said.

Here are some blogs on China by people from elsewhere. Here is a sight on business in china. Censorship in China is a major hurdle for anyone who would speak out against the Communist Party. But despite the many trials Chinese bloggers face They are pretty good at it.

Xu Jing Lei's Blog displaced Boing Boing a few months back from its long maintained hold on the #1 slot on Technorati, before Technorati was blocked by what is called the Great Firewall of China.

As I have said before, Learn Chinese.
