Maoxian’s Top Ten Links — January 19, 2007

  1. What the Chinese want to know - Top Searches at Baidu.com

    2. Glad to see “how to trade stocks” and “what are futures” both make the list. The answer to every single “Should I” question is yes, except for “Should I join the Party?”

  2. Poor man’s iPhone

    3. Reminds me of the poor man’s PDA, which is what I use (a piece of paper and a pencil).

  3. How to Reduce Urinal Spillage by 80%

    4. Cleaner and cleverer than the “Bulls Eye” inserts.

  4. Tokyo at Night (photo)

    5. Nice shot.

  5. For Beijing men, it’s in the handbag

    6. “For Dunhill, the English menswear brand with 70 locations around the country, the men’s handbag is their best-selling item in China and retails for about 4,000 yuan, or $500, each.”

    If you ever catch me carrying a shou bao, just punch me. “It’s not a purse, it’s European.” - Jerry Seinfeld

  6. Women look more favourably on men that other women find attractive

    7. “If it is difficult to choose the best mating material, or takes a lot of time and energy, it makes sense to go with what works for the other girls.”

    Extremely accurate and yet another Seinfeld reference springs to mind, George in The Bizarro Jerry:

    “Don’t you see. Women like that are like, members of a secret tribe living in a forbidden city. People like me have not been inside in thousands of years. But with this, it’s like I’ve already been with one of her own! My hands been stamped! I come and go as I please!”

  7. Best CAPTCHA Ever

    8. Nothing personal of course.

  8. Against Widgets

    9. Nick Denton is exactly right. I loathe widgets and never visit Fred’s painfully slow site (though I faithfully read his feed via Bloglines).

  9. Applied Geometry (photo)

    10. Or, what happens when the overeducated are underemployed.

  10. A Woman with Asperger’s Syndrome

    11. “While there are many people who certainly matter to me, I’m not sure I can qualitatively summarize whether or not that constitutes love.”

    I think I can qualitatively summarize why she’s going to have trouble finding a guy.

    Eyal: I’ve already gotten a half a dozen emails begging me for her name. Maybe I should get in the model agency business. ;-) Whaddya think of the Top Ten Links?

    Don’t keep us in the dark too long ;)

    I found the Chinese searches interesing and sometimes hilarious, quite different from Google’s Zeitgeist.

    The Asperger girl sounds a lot like Daryl Hannah.

    “She’s pretty—slender and pale, with innocently round eyes and long brown hair—and yet she’s never had a boyfriend.”

    Love is overrated. Does Aspie Girl have email or a blog or something?

    What a cheap, cruel comment on the woman with Asperger’s. You’re a punk.
