Name.com has a feature where you can search for domain names by keyword, and then see how many Google searches there are for that particular term. I was checking out Facebook related websites when I found out a shocking fact….

Name.com有一项功能,就是你可以按关键字搜索域名,然后看看有多少谷歌搜索结果是有这些关键字的。在我查看跟Facebook相关的网站的时候,找到了一个令人震惊的事实…

…Facebook is Norwegian! This ‘beta’ needs some more work…

…Facebook是挪威的!这个‘测试版’的需要再加工一下…

China mourns the death of Google – 中国悼念谷歌死亡

It almost seems inevitable at this point – Google will be pulling out of China. It is unclear about what exactly will still be available to the millions of people who use Google’s services every day here, but staff at Google.cn were rumoured to have spent yesterday watching Avatar and eating a farewell meal, before either joining the US office or finding new employment.

看来这已经成了不可避免的事实 – 谷歌将撤出中国了。目前还不清楚究竟在这里的数百万每天使用谷歌的人还能使用什么谷歌的服务,但Google.cn的员工有传言说,昨天在他们决定要么加入美国办事处或找新的工作之前,他们去看了阿凡达,吃了散伙饭了。

It’s true that Google wasn’t making huge amounts of money in China, and it’s true that they were not the number one search engine – but let’s be realistic: 2nd place in a market of a billion people is still pretty damn good. They will be missed by a lot of people…and yesterday mourners gathered to pay their respects at Google’s offices.

的确,谷歌在中国没怎么赚钱,也确实,他们不是头号搜索引擎 – 但是让我们面对现实:在一个10亿人口的市场第二名仍然相当好了。它仍然将被很多人怀念…昨天在谷歌中国办事处门口有很多人来表示哀悼了。

It’s been confirmed that Baidu was in fact hacked by the funnily named ‘Iranian Cyber Army’ earlier today.

已经确认了今天早上百度确实被‘伊朗Cyber Army’给黑了。

Reports on Kaixin001 (The Chinese equivalent of Facebook) suggest that Baidu (The Chinese equivalent of Google) was hacked early this morning by Iranian cyber terrorists! This might be a hoax, but I think if it was then….they would have made a better PS picture!

来自开心001的报道,百度今早被伊朗恐怖分子所黑!这可能是个闹剧,但是我觉得如果是……他们可以PS得更好一些!

The message left by the Iranian Cyber Army (and translated into Chinese above) mentions Israel, websites spreading false information and outsiders interfering in Iranian domestic and foreign policy.

Avatar quotes – 阿凡达台词

I went to see Avatar at the cinema on Friday night! I think that it is the first movie that has been totally hyped beyond recognition, then when I went to see it finally surpassed all of my expectations!

上周五晚上我去看了电影阿凡达!我觉得这是第一部被炒得那么过分可以在我看了以后,仍然觉得超过了我期望的片子!

It seems like James Cameron really has the magic touch when it comes to movies and the box office – I can’t believe that people have said that Avatar is going to take $1 billion dollars before it’s done. Just send me 1% of that. Or 0.1%. Or 0.01%. I’ll be happy. Thanks!

看来James Cameron涉及到电影和票房的时候,确实很有魔力 – 我很难相信人们说的阿凡达创下了10亿美元票房。只要给我它的1%。或0.1%。或0.01%。我就会开心死了。谢谢!

Avatar quotes

Avatar is a really long movie but when it finished it felt like I’d just sat down – I think that’s a positive thing. One non-positive thing is that I drank three beers during it and so I was really REALLY bursting for a piss when it finished. This might have led to me forgetting what happened during the last thirty minutes of the movie because of the rush of blood to my head. That’s a good reason to watch it again though!

阿凡达是一个很长的电影,但是它结束的时候会感觉就像刚坐下来的一样 – 我认为这是好的一面。不太好的是,看的时候我喝了3罐啤酒,所以我真的憋死了。这可能导致我忘了电影最后30分钟放了些什么,因为血液都冲到脑子里去了。这也是一个很好的,再看一次的理由!

Anyway, I thought that the special effects were amazing, the story was great and the acting was brilliant – and if you’ve seen it too then check out Avatar quotes for a catch-up on some of the best lines – there were a lot!

不管怎样,我觉得那些特效都太棒了,不错的情节,精湛的演出 – 如果你也已经看过了,那么快追看一些里面的经典对白吧 – 有很多!

I see you!

Look at this picture.

看下面这个图。

What do you see in this picture?

I was coming home from work last night when I suddenly opened the window and stuck my phone out and snapped a picture. Can you guess what had caught my eye? What was it that was so important that I braved the freezing night air to capture?

昨晚在我回家路上,当我突然开窗,突然拿出手机,突然拍下了一张照片的时候。你才我看到了什么? 是什么那么重要,以至于在那么冷的天气,尤其是晚上,我要开窗拍照?

Have another look!

再看一下!

When you’re ready to know the answer, have a look at the Photoshop enhanced version (below)!

如果你准备好揭开谜底了,那么看以下 PS以后加强版效果(下面)!

Anyway, here’s an amazing video that I found over on Funny In China (although I’m pretty sure it’s not Chinese) – a video made by a special effects company, highlighting its work. I can’t stop watching it!

不管怎样,我这里有个很棒的视频,是我在Funny In China上发现的(虽然我确定那个不是在中国)-一个特效公司做的视频宣传他们的杰作。我喜欢死了!
