Talk about social networking. I spotted the Today Show on Twitter, looked up their address and sent them a "Tweet," complaining about how slow the web is since BJ'ers are watching the Olympics by webcast: peer-to-peer live video streaming, thanks to a company called PPLive (yes!). Guess what? I got an instant reply from the Today Show. Very, very slow web, Matt (?) wrote back.
Come about 4pm every day and I'm ready to give up trying to stay connected. Better to try a different kind of surfing elsewhere. But I'm having too much fun here in Beijing.
