A video about the traffic situation in Beijing
This is a video about the traffic situation in Beijing and how rude drivers of expensive cars (there is a high import tax on luxury cars!) can be when they should pay a 10 RMB (ca. 1 Euro - $1.20) parking fee:

New pictures uploaded
PicasaWeb now offers 1 GB free space so I uploaded some more albums - most of them are not part of the blog:
PicasaWeb
Enjoy!
I also added all my pictures from Macau, which now also has a blog (as you may have seen in the comments). Macau is a gambler's haven and now is making even more money than Las Vegas. I'm not a gambler so Macau can get a bit boring when the weather is bad.
I will try to find a better logo for my sidebar link to Picasa...

Mess!
Sorry about this posting mess. I used the blogging function of YouTube and it took more than 2 days until the postings have been created. Sorry for the confusion!

Chinese Democracy (the real one)
This here is a report (with video!) about a brawl (again) in the Taiwanese parliment. You first would think you're in the Shanghai Metro but no this is really the parliment. Maybe it's because the KMT still remembers the good old times?
Now if you wonder why you never saw something like this during the meetings of the National People's Congress in Beijing - they have nothing to brawl about (because there's no opposition) and prefer to dose off and sip some green tea.
Scott Adams is going all crazy about this and thinks that this must be the perfect type of government - democracy and fighting.
I'm wondering now if I should really use the tags "China" and "Taiwan"?

My del.icio.us
I can't manage to get this into the sidebar. When I do it one way the Internet Explorer will mess up my website and the other way Opera will mess it up. It's just too big. And if somebody says that HTML and JavaScript is all standardized then I'll go and *****!
So there we go - maybe this will work:
