Portals

China.com: major English/Chinese language portal based in Hong Kong. Economic content practically nil. OK for horoscopes.

ChinaOnline: Chicago-based English-language portal: nice, clean site with some good content, but has started to fill pages with official news stories.

ChinaPages: Chinese and English language business portal: mostly B2B advertising. News items tend to be adverts for firms like the Ningbo Xinda Screw Compressor Co. Ltd.

Inside China Today: neat, comprehensive, updated daily, all in English

Muzi: a pleasant online community, in danger of degenerating into a dating site

MyWeb: Beijing-based Chinese language portal, originally from San Francisco. As the name suggests, personalised and adaptable to user requirements.

Sina: another Beijing-based Chinese language portal, with a user-friendly Yahoo-type menu. Very broad (but not always deep) coverage.

Virtual China: New York-based English language portal providing daily coverage of China focusing on the Internet industry, plus some interesting sections on culture and the arts. And don't miss Jennifer Yang's spicy Sichuanese recipes!

www.online.sh.cn: Shanghai-based Chinese language portal. Very much a local online illustrated newspaper, only slightly marred by irritating animated .gif adverts.

Yahoo!China: needs no introduction, all in Chinese.

Economics, business, trade and finance

There are numerous sites in China claiming to provide economic data. Unfortunately, most suffer from terminal defects: they take ages to load, or are defunct, or hopelessly out-of-date, and often contain worthless data or no data at all. Please let me know if you find good sites and I'll include them in this list.

Le 13 juillet 2001 lors de la 112e Session du CIO à Moscou, Beijing a été élue ville hôte des Jeux de la XXIXe Olympiade en 2008. Le vote a reflété l'opinion de la commission d'évaluation du CIO qui "pense que des Jeux à Beijing laisseraient un héritage unique à la Chine et au sport. La commission est convaincue que la ville de Beijing pourrait organiser d'excellents Jeux".

Chinanews: Beijing-based Chinese-language news agency

China Youth Daily: Beijing-based Chinese-language daily, toes the official line like other papers but lets its readers decide on staff performance and occasionally digs deeper into real life--and finds more dirt--than other newspapers (according to an excellent BBC TV documentary shown in March 2000)

Green Times: Beijing-based Chinese-language environmental newspaper covering green issues and also health and safety at work--more critical and informative than the general run of newspapers in China
