4 weeks since launch
I got the idea for this post after reading a post by Mr C having had his blog up for 1 month.
The 512,000 RMB question ?
Where should this blog/site be headed...
The site has become very popular in a short space of time, having far exceeded my wildest expectations, so now I have to decide where it should be heading, so I thought I'd ask you folks for your opinion.
a few ideas come to mind:
a, keep as is, with a mixture of Business and Internet stuff about China, along with the trials and tribulations of living in Shanghai.
b, become a news site about Internet and Search related stuff in China. strictly no personal stuff, and may include hiring a full time researcher to translate news from Chinese media.
c, as "b" but with more of a commentary/analysis angle.
I honestly don't know, however I would like to clarify the following:
I do NOT see myself as a journalist or news editor.
I do NOT see myself as a professional blogger, whatever 1 of them may be.
I have NO desire to get into Politics of any kind on here.
So over to you folks, would love to hear what you enjoy and what you dislike about Chinawhite at the moment.

I would say go for A too.

Yeah stick with A. Your experiences of another culture are as interesting as your posts on business in China.

Definitely A, IMO.

A - for sure mate , I enjoy reading the stuff around the business It would lose character if that was taken out - if people know who you are and have met you then they can imagine you in the situations you describe and its entertaining in between the more factual stuff and makes for a better read overall

The current stance works well -
"News, interest and cultural insight"
