China Blog Additions

A few new- or new to me- China blogs for you to feast on, though only one of them is in traditional blog format. Drumroll please...

1. Chinasmack- what Chinese 姑娘 and 伙子 are saying on the internet- a useful summary of the more interesting trends on the Chinese interwang, translated into English.

2. Sexy Beijing- a video podcast series, Sexy Beijing concerns the adventures of one Anna Sophie Loewenberg, a Jewish-American princess who roams the streets of the nation's capital talking to locals about sex, love, marriage, and life.

3. Opposite End of China- The China you hear about most is the coastal part of factories, mega-cities, and urban blight. Thousands of miles away lies Xinjiang, an "autonomous region" larger than Western Europe. Not a whole lot is known about Xinjiang, few Westerners live there, and fewer still blog. So that's what makes Opposite End of China unique and interesting. Plus, author Michael Manning recently ran afoul of a Chinese ultra-nationalist dude. Funny stuff! His whole blog is worth bookmarking.
