Internet in China

April 22, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Greetings from China - is interesting to see what is and isn't blocked over here. Facebook, Twitter, Vimeo, Youtube and other social networking sites are blocked.

Would be nice to capture some of the world's largest Internet market but non Chinese sites aren't visited that much...yet. Shortest blog post on DTC! … [Read more...]

The Hoven

February 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

This a travelers dream - pop in the food before you leave and don't have to worry about cooking when you reach your destination. The Hoven (The "Engine" Oven) A built on lid makes for easy access to the oven. High … [Read more...]

The Sundarbans are the world's largest mangrove swamp and a visit here is for nature lovers and those trying to see the extremely rare Royal Bengal Tiger. Girl who wanted her photo taken, Dhaka Boys in old town, Dhaka … [Read more...]
