5 Weeks in Shanghai Behind The Great Firewall.  My (Nonprofound) Learnings.

5 Weeks in Shanghai Behind The Great Firewall. My (Nonprofound) Learnings.

By Jason M. Lemkin on July 30, 2013

Unless you follow SaaStr on Quora, things may have looked a little quiet here for the last 5 weeks. Well, that’s because hosted WordPress (what Saastr.com is powered by), along with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and a good chunk of Google, are all blocked in China by The Great Firewall.  Quora for now is unblocked.  You […]

Social Media is Really Tough in China.  At Least There is Quora.

Social Media is Really Tough in China. At Least There is Quora.

By Jason M. Lemkin on July 1, 2013

SaaStr is in Shanghai for the month of July.  While I have internet access and an iPad … it’s tough to stay connected with the domestic SaaStr audience. Why? Well, first almost everything is blocked:  Facebook, Twitter, WordPress (as an app and URL — individual sites with custom URLs sometimes barely work, sometimes not at […]

Growing Internationally

By Guest Authors on March 15, 2013

One of the greatest opportunities any established business faces is growth internationally. Take a company like Apple.

This type of thinking lead to […]

A cyberwar barely in the making

By Dan Morrill on March 13, 2013

We are asking China to stop poking at our networks; maybe we should take a look at what everyone else is doing along the way. An international framework is probably in order at this point. Many news systems are broadcasting that America is asking/telling China to stop hacking American Companies. While in testimony Army Gen. […]

Mandiant and APT1 cyber warfare espionage

Mandiant and APT1 cyber warfare espionage

By Dan Morrill on February 20, 2013

Hey wait, if we have screen video of hackers doing their work, doesn’t that mean we penetrated the hackers methods, processes, and other information resources? Sometimes I don’t think we are thinking clearly enough, as the fear mongering escalates for cyber warfare, and how we are all going to go through an electronic pearl harbour, […]

2B or Not 2B

2B or Not 2B

By Guest Authors on October 29, 2012

I have worked the majority of my career from various executive suites. As a part of senior management I see many corporate leaders. I am unusual in that much of my early career was not climbing the corporate ladder through successive management ranks. I was an engineer who was happy doing engineering until some unusual […]

Apple margin per device – expressed in Chinese

By Martijn Linssen on January 24, 2012

[Image by Sven Teschke] An article in the New York Times published 2 days ago suddenly gained a lot of traction and got discussed, reposted and reblogged today: Apple making money off of the United States, while directly employing “only” twice as many employees in the US than overseas – but indirectly more than ten […]

If I wanted to have the great firewall of America

If I wanted to have the great firewall of America

By Dan Morrill on December 12, 2011

Image via Wikipedia This is one of the most difficult blog entries to write, one it is hard to tell the truth, and in some ways I think the sponsors and supporters of SOPA are trying to pull a fast one. I am reminded of the scene is the Wizard of OZ where Dorothy is […]

Virtual Nonsense All the Way Down the Drain. A Twisted (?) View of US vs China

By Zoli Erdos on September 28, 2010

I don’t often recycle older posts in full – but sometimes I get all worked up, want to “blog it out of my system” only to discover I’ve already said it all. That’s how I feel about the explosion of virtual goods.  So there it is, vintage July 2009, still valid, except this time I’d […]

Handful Of Monopoly Infrastructure Players – Not So Fast

By Krishnan Subramanian on January 22, 2010

This is the second post on the topic I have been emphasizing on many different forums. My earlier post, Handful Of Monopoly Infrastructure Players – A Shortsighted Idea, laid out philosophical and economic reasonings against the idea of the emergence of handful of infrastructure providers. This idea is a pet theme for many cloud pundits. […]

Google's Shot at the Waterline with China

By Dan Morrill on January 13, 2010

Yesterday Google dropped the biggest corporate bombshell in recent memory with the announcement that they are reviewing their operations in China following a very sophisticated cyber attack against Google and some 20 other companies (including Rack Space) that targeted intellectual property and the Chinese dissident community. This has implications that go far beyond the explosion […]

Massive Bittorrent Site Closures in China

By Dan Morrill on December 11, 2009

The Chinese government has been busily shutting down Bittorrent sharing sites over the last 10 days causing a rush to download across China according to Sina.
