I’ve been behind on blogging lately, friends all been asking me whats up. Since I came back from Shanghai last week, I have been totally submerged into focusing all my time into Weibo Agent startup. I have been looking for the right thing to focus on, and...
What an amazing weekend that passed at the Lean Startup Machine here in Shanghai, China (one of the main reasons for me taking my long awaited trip to Shanghai). Its Tuesday evening and I’m finally catching up on the blog post, so many overwhelming calls...
Pretty excited! Confirmed the venue, and going to make it happen – Been meaning to get up to Shanghai for years now, its been over 2 years already! As I recently blogged – I have a jam packed 2 week trip in Shanghai – and I’m happy to say...
I think everyone knows I love social media and I try my best to document examples of how much it rocks! Being open, sharing your knowledge and experience is a long term commitment – but the benefits are long lasting and amazing.

First blog post back on the other side of the world. Last night (wed, may 23rd local HK time) arrived to Hong Kong international airport at 10:30pm, went through HK customs, baggage claim – took the airport express to downtown Hong Kong island and met my...
Seriously…anyone that knows me knows I’m a social media addict. When I started this blog in March 2007 the concept of Social Media as an industry and lifestyle didn’t really exist. While it wasn’t blogging, I first put this website online...
Blogging that I’m closing my first e-commerce business was a little hard, and as an active blogger I had a few choices:
I could have either not bloggeed about it, hoped no one would ask
Transferred it to someone else and maybe said it was sold for something...
After a very successful first Social Media training seminar in January before Chinese New years, we have been trying to make an agenda and a plan for future events. Hero Meets Hero group (aka hiwto, a Chinese ecommerce group I’m marketing to Foreigners)...
I remember being that frustrated American in USA….emailing factories and Chinese businesses during the months of Jan / Feb and getting nothing, no reply, not even a vacation autoresponder (well Chinese don’t really use email anyway…) ….and...
Overall I like Google…but I can’t help to think they are getting to be more and more “evil” as an overall brand feeling.
Chinese Currently People Respect Google

What is getting more and more funny…and crazy at the same time…is that I am getting busier and busier on my Sina Weibo, Tencent Weixin and QQ, talking about English social media and American vs Chinese culture and way of life.
Those of you following...
I have seen this sign, in the same location here in Shekou district of Shenzhen since I first moved here in 2007. I remember it used to have the English translation underneath it, and that is what inspired me to take a photo of it and discuss today. I wonder why...
Wow, this confirms it – Weibo really is better than Twitter. Reading the official news from Twitter, their new UI interface updates seems to be quite similar to how Weibo has been doing it since its beginning!
I got more information when I read Silicon...
Finally got this new blog template online, been talking about new template since September, tried to get it online before my USA trip scramble…after getting back from America I have been doing intense meetings, events, proposals for ecommerce businesses.
But...
Attending this tropicalmba event was a big reason for my trip down to the Philippines (I have been meaning to get down here for months), to find + network with like-minded internet entrepreneurs.
The event is the first of its kind, to be a month long networking...
