China: Essential blogs · Global Voices
John Kennedy

Danwei‘s Jeremy and Joel list not necessarily the best Chinese blogs and BBS’, but the ones they feel offer the best insight for those who read Chinese. On top is MindMeters Blog: “This collaborative blog, connected to editors and writers from The Economic Observer newspaper (who now make up a small minority of its bloggers), covers everything from business education to literary history, from world music to social affairs. The comments are intelligent, the posts well written, and you never know on any given day whether you'll be greeted by an analysis of leadership philosophies, a discussion of French film, or musings on which authors’ appearance resemble their writing style. An essential stop every day.”
