internet - The Guardian and the Google discussion



The Guardian picked up my entries on the Google Webaccelerator, who is unfortunately not accepting new users anymore. What I find interesting to see all those opinions in the comments of people who are living in an uncensored world.
For me the system is working excellent, but got many emails from people who were unfortunately too late to download it. I have discussed the official announcement that Google stopped new applications because of capacity problems, but engineers denounce that as nonsense. So, it would be interesting to see how things develop further, while I enjoy my new tool.
Regarding the Google venture in China is this rant by Danwei useful to follow, who raises a couple of valid questions, like why they set up a representative office in China if they want to do business, since a rep office cannot do business, cannot have a bankbook and not deal with the Renminbi. Sounds like a mistake by the reporting journalists or a screw-up by Google. We will keep following this.
