• I've put together a sort of a guide for all things Dalian - Bars, Restaurants, Hotels, whatever. Any attempt at putting together this kind of guide should (in my opinion) have addresses listed in English, and pinyin and Chinese. What's the use of a guide that says, "go up the road until you see a restaurant with a blue overhang next to the post office." If it doesn't have a precise address that people can use in a taxi, it's not worth a damn.
  
  I'm happy to say that all Chinese characters on that part of my site will display pinyin when you hover over the chinese characters. What a ninja I am...
  
  This site also has an area where you can contribute info about your favorite places in Dalian, so I hope all you guys out there will participate and submit any useful information you may have. Also, please give some feedback about the bars and restaurants listed by clicking "Comments" at the end of each post. I've tried to stay neutral and just list the address, and leave it to readers to provide reviews.
  
  
• My PandaShop. If you need an "I Love Dalian" thong, you're in luck! Right now the product line is limited, but I plan to add an "I love xiaojie" shirt, as well as an "I love boba" (meaning "I love whores," and "I love big titties," respectively). They will be added shortly.
  
  
  
• I'm also gonna try to start writing some blog entries for for Ryan's (aka The Humanaught) new site, "Lost Laowai," the second coolest China-related domain name there is. I've gotta try and stay civilized though, and be a little more serious than I am on this site. I don't know if I succeeded in my first attempt though...
  
  For those of you not familiar with Ryan's new site, please check it out. The Haohao Report is one of the coolest things China-related websites to pop up in a long time. It's basically a China-related Digg. It's one stop shopping for all your China news. If you have a China-related blog, you should consider adding these buttons to your site, so that people can submit your articles to Haohao with a single click.

Anyway, my biggest problem these days is sticking to one project because I have too many silly ideas, and I'm always getting sidetracked. But we'll see how it goes. So far this site has about 6 components, and I'm gonna try and tie them all together a little better than they are now (i.e. using a common color scheme, and a common navigation bar on every page). If anyone has any comments or suggestions please let me know.

This site is still just a hobby, and I can't say I'm too serious about it. Still pretty half-assed, but it's a good laugh all the same.

In other news, I've added two new additions to my Dalian Bloglist, Eyes East and International Misfit. Please check 'em out. And then there's this. Dalian Xpat is making progress as well, which is good to see.
