    Are there websites which Chinese people need but can't get if they don't know Western languages?
  • stattostatto January 2011
    Is this a Facebook clone? Am I using Facebook right now?
  • stattostatto January 2011
    Does this update in real time or do you have to refresh? If you have to refresh and this is built from scratch your losing you're touch

    the web sites are created because the companies in the US couldn't penetrate the Chinese market in time. it's all about speed in China, more than the US. as soon as one site releases a feature, it is copied by others.

    and, no you're not using facebook. I just set the theme to the most simplified one.

    sites that people need that can't get, that's what we're trying to figure out in this forum

    do markets exist in developing, nearly internet-less countries? What if we built something incredibly simple to give someone in (country with not a lot of people using the internet yet) an opportunity to use Dillo and start generating content?
  • phuphu January 2011
    markets exist. however, as we see with Egypt and Iran, the tools exists (facebook, twitter) but the government censorship is high. Egypt completely shut down its internet recently to silence protesters
  • stattostatto January 2011
    that is a special instance though.
