Beijing IT OG blogger--tea with Keso

After leaving the Trends media conglomerate, we shot across the city to meet Keso, the well-know blogger , who has been an important voice the Chinese blogspere for close to a decade now. We discussed what role the Internet plays in Chinese creativity and attitude. He says, "When got online for the first time I saw the world in front of me." We asked why is blogging growing like mad here in China. Star bloggers are multiplying (far more so than in the U.S.) and stars are emerging from blogsphere itself (much more like the U.S.). Keso's reply: "This is a subject of great interest right now and great debate in the media. The Web used to be read-only, now you can leave your own mark.” Truth to power from an original gangster of the cn Internet.
