I've reached a level in Mandarin where I can surf around on Chinese websites without too much bother. However, I
don't know what's good and interesting on the Chinese web. Does anyone have any tips? There are a lot of Chinese on the www, so there ought to be some interesting pages out there (or are they all removed by the government?), but I don't know how to find them. Please share your favorite bookmarks! 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

Try going to chinasmack.com - it features whatever is hot on the Chinese interwebs, and translates it into English. So just find something that looks interesting to you and go to the source and then take it from there.

The Chinasmack.com is a new one for me and a great find. Thank you Pyx.
www.justing.com.cn has podcast subscriptions on many different topics-just click on the purple light bulbs. I've mentioned it several times before, but perhaps some newbies here don't yet know about verycd.com. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

There's also a fan-translated version of The Economist if you're into that. I ignore 90 percent of the articles, but now and then there's something that catches my interest, and then it's great to have the English and the Chinese paragraph by paragraph next to each other.

Excellent tips so far. I did not know about verycd.com, so thanks a lot, FamusBluRaincot. The podcast link is likely
to be pure gold. Very much appreciated. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

www.xiaonei.com or www.renren.com - It's the Chinese version of facebook.
Also most Chinese people use qq not msn for instant messages. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

If you follow slashdot.org, you might as well do it in Chinese instead
