Chinese Netizens Boycott Real-Name Registration
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me Recently, the Chinese Communist State Council Press Office has pushed for real-name registration policy on China's Internet microblogs%mdashor Weibo. But users aren't going to comply so easily to policy they've questioned and haven't received answers about. Here's more. As Chinese Communist authorities try to enforce real name registration policy for online microblogs, netizens across China are boycotting. Many users are moving their posts to new online homes. Especially since the July Wenzhou train crash, authorities are realizing the Internet is serving as a medium for free-flow of information and public opinion. The number of microblog users is also drastically increasing, prompting Chinese authorities to seek new ways to monitor them. Despite negative public opinion, Communist officials are insisting that using real name measures are necessary to stop "increasing negative public opinion." The proposed new policy would require online users to register with their ID numbers. [Pu Fei, Spokesman, 64tianwang.com Human Rights Center]: "The real name registration can't prevent impostors unless they can check it one by one, which is impossible." Many people have questioned how authorities plan to deal with people registering with other people's IDs or how their personal information would be kept secure. Authorities have said they would "take measures," but did not ... From: NTDTV Views: 36 3 ratings Time: 01:48 More in News & Politics

500-million Chinese Using the Internet
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me More than 500-million Chinese are using the Internet. But with it comes new regulations by authorities, intending to limit freedom of expression and campaigns to monitor public opinion. The number of the Internet users in China had exceeded half a billion by the end of last year, according to new data. A report released by the China Internet Network Information Center says the Internet penetration rate stood at 37.7 percent in China. It's up 3.4 percent over the end of 2010. However, it's still much lower compared to 70 percent in Japan and South Korea. Officials say the Internet is becoming more influential in China. [Wang Chen, International Communication Office Minister]: "The number of Internet users in our country had exceeded 500 million by the end of last year and the Internet penetration rate has surpassed the world's average standard. The use of the Internet in China becomes increasingly extensive and the content of the information is rich and colorful. It has become an important infrastructure in the national economic operation and a greatly influential new media."

Twitter traffic: Success and Growth of Twitter
Original Title: Evan Williams on what's behind Twitter's explosive growth (youtube) / Evan Williams on listening to Twitter users (TED)
In the year leading up to this talk, the web tool Twitter exploded in size (up 10x during 2008 alone). Co-founder Evan Williams reveals that many of the ideas driving that growth came from unexpected uses invented by the users themselves.Â
Evan Williams is the co-founder of Twitter, the addictive messaging service that connects the world 140 characters at a time.
Why you should listen to him:  Evan Williams helps the world answer the question "What are you doing?" Twitter, the tiny, free world-changing app Williams helped launch, has become a vital connector of people and communities (as well as a fantastic way to keep up with Shaq and Demi Moore). Before Williams worked on Twitter, he was part of a previous revolution in mass communication, Blogger, while working at Google. He left Google in 2004 to launch the podcasting service Odeo, and Twitter spun out from this in 2006 as a side project based on an idea of Jack Dorsey's.    Â
"Williams has a knack for figuring out how people want to keep in touchâeven before they seem to know it themselves."Â BusinessWeek

Chinese Dragon Stamp Attracts Criticism
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me As the Chinese Lunar New Year is just around the corner, the Chinese Post released its annual New Year's stamp on Thursday. The year of the dragon is considered an auspicious year, but the new dragon stamp is bringing up some controversy. A new Chinese postage stamp with a fierce-looking dragon that went on sale on Thursday is drawing a lot of attention and discussion over its design. Netizens posted comments on the Chinese microblogging site Sina Weibo saying the image of the dragon is very inauspicious for the upcoming Lunar New Year, and that the design goes against traditional aesthetics. One Weibo post says, "Its body and claws are awkwardly positioned...I can't tell if the dragon is playing with the pearl or is trying to scare people. The design is really a mess." In defense, the designer, Chen Shaohua, said the fierce-looking dragon represents China's growing confidence. One netizen replied to his comment by stating, "...National strength is the thing that really matters, not the flashy image on the surface." Another netizen described the dragon stamp as having "a devil look," "making threatening gestures," "shamed into anger," "soaring gas prices" and "growing inflation." A cartoon mocking the dragon stamp is spreading all over the Internet. It's said to be the unofficial version of the dragon year stamp. It even became a joke among stamp collectors ...

Long-awaited Wenzhou Bullet Train Crash Report Leaves Netizens Outraged
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me It's been more than five months since a high-speed train crash near Wenzhou left dozens dead and hundreds injured. On Wednesday, the Chinese regime finally publicly released a report on the cause of the crash. It blamed the crash on a combination of equipment failure and mismanagement. Chinese internet users flocked to microblogs like Sina Weibo with reactions to the report. On Wednesday, the Chinese State Council issued a report on the fatal bullet train crash that happened on July 23rd in Zhejiang Province, near Wenzhou. The bullet train lost power after being struck by lightning and came to a halt over a viaduct. Shortly after, it was rear-ended by another train, derailing seven carriages. At least 40 people died in the crash. The long-awaited report criticizes the Railways Ministry for its sloppy management and poor handling of the rescue efforts. A total of 54 officials were blamed, including the former railway minister, Liu Zhijun, who was dismissed over corruption charges earlier this year. The report sparked a nationwide uproar among Chinese netizens. One Sina Weibo post says, "So many people died in the accident, five months of 'difficult birth' to this 36-thousand word report only gives us dismissal, demotion, and punishment. How can the government convince the public using this!!!'" Another Weibo user wrote, "Wenzhou train crash report...is the ... From: NTDTV Views: 103 2 ratings Time: 02:21 More in News & Politics

It's raising concerns over online data protection, especially with authorities now requiring that users provide their personal details when registering social media accounts. Hackers stole data from more than six million accounts registered to CSDN%mdashChina's largest website for programmers%mdashlast Wednesday. State-run Xinhua News Agency reported hackers published user IDs, emails and passwords online in plain text%mdashmeaning anyone could access and read the information. On Sunday, one of China's largest social media websites, Tianya, reported that 40-million users' account information had been stolen and leaked. The hacks happened in the same week when authorities started requiring that microblog users register with their real names. Some believe the two may be related. [Mr. Wang, Co-founder, Chinalabs.com]: "I think this is a payback for the 'real name registration' system. A similar thing happened in South Korea when hackers leaked account passwords%mdashwhen real name registration was imposed. Korea ended up scrapping those plans. So I think China may be facing a similar problem. With this real name registration, if authorities cannot guarantee the protection of the data, then the system can't be implemented." For now ...

The Chinese regime put into effect new policies that will allow them to monitor bloggers more. On Friday, the Chinese regime implemented new policies that will require microbloggers to register with their real names. They can still have screen names, but before posting a comment, they must give administrators their personal information. According to state-run CCTV, the new rules will help prevent the spreading of "Information about state secrets, information damaging national security and interests, and instigating ethnic resentment, discrimination or illegal rallies that disrupt law and order." They're referring to rallies such as the one in April, when about 30 bloggers demonstrated outside a court in Fuzhou City. They were protesting the arrest of three bloggers facing slander charges for helping an illiterate woman to pressure authorities to reinvestigate her daughter's death. One of those rallying is a popular Internet activist, Wang Lihong. He's spending the next nine months in prison on the vague charge of "creating a disturbance."

"http://www.lockergnome.com/social/2011/12/02/facebook-is-not-a-blog/ Status updates on Facebook used to be limited to 500 characters, which kept it in the microblogging category along with Twitter. Just recently, Facebook upped this limit dramatically to ""more than 60,000 characters"" — which means that you could feasibly use Facebook as your main blog now. But is it a good idea? Kelly Clay firmly believes it's a horrible idea to use Facebook as your main blog, and gives quite a few compelling reasons why.
