China is the future
Is China the future? Google trends shows news about “china” growing faster than “america” and searches on “china” decreasing slower than “america”. (The two big peaks in “china” searches were around the earthquake and the olympics.)
Just a lighthearted view. China is the future at least for me – I am relocating to Beijing to do a new startup – seravia.com. My two partners moved to Beijing recently and we’re just getting our new office set up and hiring a few key people. This has taken up most of my time in the last few weeks so I haven’t had time to write anything. In particular I left like.com, where I’ve been for the last four years. I’ve been lucky to have worked with such great people there and leave with wonderful memories. And now I’ll be leaving the Bay Area/Silicon Valley where I’ve lived for the past eleven years and the US where I’ve been since I was three. My parents were both born in China and incidentally, my move to China comes 60 years after my parents left China. Much has changed in the last five cycles of the Chinese zodiac – now what will the next cycle bring? I’ll be in China to find out.
