Thank you Ken!
For example, the buddy tells, according to the translator, <<Google can also search weather, try with "Beijing weather" >>

Google is far behind the Chinese search engines such as Baidu. They have conquered most markets but the Chinese market may be more than google can handle.

Google.cn in a wrong way again.

In the China net bar(internet cafe), Game, Movie, IM chat, Video Chat is the main service. Only Game can make real money at once.

Almost all default page at net bar is Game.

Google.cn should put its focus at school, company, factories and families, ect, which places blocked Game almost.
