Comments on Shi Feng on education and the Internet in China

sorry, this comment is not related to this post.

i just want to let you know, for the first time, just now, i had to use jump over the great firewall of china to get to danwei.

Dear Gao Zhi,

We had some server issues at the end of this week but it seems that Danwei.org is working fine now without needing to climb the wall.

Was it really not working?

Thanks,
Alice

Great job on this interview, this is an important topic.
