[...] 如果你在TechCrunch上通过关键字“China”搜索一下，你会发现在过去的一个月中，TechCrunch一共发表了8篇与中国互联网有关的文章。最近的一篇是“HiPiHi公布全球化战略，建立虚拟世界标准”，我也在这里作了介绍。这还真是有些不同寻常。如果你曾经读到过Michael Arrington写的一篇文章“Google与中国还有劣行”，以及他的其他几篇发表在CrunchNotes上的文章，相信你就会理解我的感觉了。我甚至了解几个中国的网站（其中有一个现在被认为中国最具有创新性的Web2.0网站）都曾经试图联系TechCrunch，希望可以介绍他们，但是没有一个得到回复。不过还是得提到下Michael最终还是注意到了TC在中国拥有很多粉丝。 TechCrunch在关注中国互联网吗？如果是，对于中国互联网来说应该是个不错的消息。但是我还是有些怀疑。TechCrunch关注中国的原因不会是因为Google在中国市场加大了力度了吧？可以参看下面搜索“中国”后结果的截屏，一半都是和Google中国有关，而且其中只有一篇是Michael自己写的，有一些也不是第一手的消息（从其他媒体例如Metaversed, Reuters转载的）。请不要误会我，我在这里并不是想批评TechCrunch。TechCrunch绝对是学习互联网市场非常好的渠道和资源。我想问的是：什么时候人们才会真正认为中国互联网值得被关注呢？引自：http://www.mobinode.com/chinese/?p=39 [...]

[...] If you search for the posts with the keyword ‘China’ on TechCrunch, there are eight posts which are China web related in the past one month. The latest one is HiPiHi Seeks To Standardize 3D Worlds And Develop Interoperability which I also covered here. It is quite unusual, I would say. If you ever read a post titled Google and China and Evilness from Michael Arrington and some other posts on his CrunchNotes, you will understand my feeling here. I even know a few Chinese websites (one of them is now regarded as one of the most innovative Chinese Web2.0 site) were trying to catch TC to profile them but never got response. Well, Need to mention that Michael finally noticed that there are loads of TC fans in China. [...]

I wish them luck. My partner in iJigg based out of Brazil was refused visa after we got into y-combinator. Same reason: not enough proof you’ll return. He would be leaving behind a new born and a wife. A house. A large family. Not sure what more proof is needed.

I have noticed that there is a bunch of intreest in the SizeMonkey startup from India. It will be interesting to see if they come to the TechCrunch.

And I agree, the Irish can not be trusted!

[...] The message below really inspired us to think about the important responsibility we have with the conference and how important it is to create forums for entrepreneurs from around the globe to gather together to share ideas. It’s so great that world is getting smaller, and that the Internet is facilitating this very transformation. Michael adds his thoughts at CrunchNotes. [...]

Mike - I hope you are also helping them sort out the most critical problem - having proof that they are coming here for a conference.

It’s amazing how difficult we sometimes make it for our technical friends from overseas to enter our country (but if you are willing to pick spinach, you have no problem getting in!).
