Fascinating, interesting to know more about how China does this.

Great interview, Dan! Interestingly, most pages in TechHui (all but the home page as far as I can tell) never completely load for me (being currently in China) unless I'm using a VPN. It hangs while trying to load up something from Facebook Connect because as you know Facebook is blocked in China. Because the page doesn't completely load, I can't do certain actions like approve or add a comment until the Facebook Connection portion finally times out. Its interesting to point out then that use of Facebook Connect on your webpages in effect prevents participation from China because people will probably give up trying to add a comment before the timeout occurs.
