Been Sick

I'm just now over being sick. Ended up taking a hiatus from my blog as getting sick threw off my schedule somewhat. After not making up for lost time, I finally decided to catch up my post and make at least something of it.
So far this year I started a computer repair business venture with a friend. Things could be going much better, we already had to leave one of the employees behind (not that he was our best tech anyways) and relocate the business several times to the point where it barely has a base anymore. Despite that, we are still making a little progress in a few areas. More on that later....
Microsoft, Yahoo and Google are now working with china in many areas as China moves quickly into the internet era. China already has the second most internet users in the world. I guess when china said that search companies could offer censored search results, or not do business with china at all, it makes sense that they would all comply and try to compete with each other in a new market. It is not beyond any of these companies to conform to governments (even communist) wishes without thinking how this effects Chinese citizens or even the average American opinion. MSN and Yahoo already turned in Chinese people to the government and disabled their blogs for having the wrong opinion or something like that.
Google seems to be a little better, trying to push as much in as little time as any of the 3 major search companies. They are the only of the 3 to let users know when they are being censored compared to no search results being found. Google has also moved the servers from the mainland back into the U.S. mostly to restrict the government of China from spying on its citizens.
Enough of that, this blog thing is harder when you try.

• Non-Recent Update: the business hit harder times when our client stopped sending us work orders, mostly over issues with some lying customers, and the mentioned employee we had to fire.
