Inside you’ll find a special collection of 7 internal links on Chengdu Living, to the most popular, the most controversial, the most helpful and more.

There’s a titanic shift happening on the Chinese internet right now. It’s time to see what this Weibo talk is all about and how it can benefit you.

I recently attended a riveting lecture by a China veteran of the highest order. Steve Dickinson, lawyer and co-author of China Law Blog.

Chengdu Living suddenly became inaccessible from within China on Thursday March 10th.  Hoping for the best, we held on for a day until we were able to confirm that indeed, after 14 months of being online, we are now officially blocked. Here’s our take.

I remember buying international phone cards to call overseas when I first arrived in China. It was slow and annoying. Fortunately, there’s a much better way that might even be free for you.

Perhaps you’ve already noticed, but we at Chengdu Living are big fans of Freedur VPN. So we’re happy to announce that we have ten free annual subscriptions (valued at the newly discounted price of $60) that we’re giving away to readers! Read on to find out how to win.

Chinese born after 1990 (dubbed “90后”) came of age in 2008, when earthquakes and Olympics rocked the Chinese Maindland. Now in their early 20′s, many people inside and outside of China are watching this demographic very closely to see how they will shape the future.

After months of conjecture over what the outcome of Google’s fateful blog post calling out China would be, Google.cn is out of operation. To be exact, all of Google’s China search services (Google Search, Google News, and Google Images) are being redirected to Google.com.hk where uncensored results are being offered to surfers in Mainland China. For the time being.

The origin of this clip is mysterious, but it depicts a Chinese girl wearing a nightgown and scaring the hell out of people as they enter the door next to her. It only takes one look at her silent gaze before bystanders freak out, one by one.

If you’re reading this from inside China and aren’t accessing the internet through a VPN, you should be. With a VPN, you can access Youtube, Facebook, and everything else on the internet anonymously. With this in mind, we gave away 10 six-month Freedur VPN subscriptions, valued at $40 each!! Results inside.
