Google Music China totally rocks!

Google.cn has a neat little service up and running called Google Music China. Google arranged to cooperate with the worlds major labels to offer thousands of songs for free (financed through ads). Streaming aswell as downloading is possible and working like a charm. Guess I need a bit extra storage until I go back to Germany... ;-)
The only downturn is kind of a little translation problem here... But trial-and-error does a pretty good job..

Getting a prepaid SIM in China...

...isn't that easy. There are good numbers and bad numbers. For example 4 is really bad. That's why pricing depends on the actual phone number and ranges from 40 RMB to 350 RMB (4 - 35 Euro).
I got great support by our HR person and after 10 minutes we had a compromising decision and took a 60 RMB SIM with which I'm absolutely pleased until now.

Let's see... A posterous iPhone App!

As hinted from Techcrunchs Robin Wauters, posterous iPhone App has just been approoved and released in the AppStore. Due to posterous splendid integration of Posting-by-eMail, I didn't excactly miss a separat app.. Although the ability to manage albums after posting them is quite nice, the feature set of the app is pretty limited at this time. I'll be probably sticking with posting things via mail until an update is in sight.

Give it a shot, here!
