Forums > Living in Kunming > What the #*%$s wrong with the internet?
It looks like I'm not the only one. I have been studying math and found a website: www.khanacademy.org based on autodidact learning and it has been consistently blocked. Is this a general lowering of bandwidth or is the GCF blocking this site too?
Forums > Living in Kunming > skype with an apple computer
I'm trying to set up a video chat, but the skype download seems to include windows operating systems. Is there any way to get Skype functioning with an apple computer?

Forums > Living in Kunming > video chat via an Imac
I am in the tenative stages of endeavoring to teach via the internet using video chat. But there are so many choices and I don't want to start downloading various protocols, adding to my spam list by inserting my email address, having to deal with the headaches of proxy servers, putting a credit card # into a form. . . etc. . .!!!!
Gmail is the consensus favorite from my email responses, but unfortunately it doesn't handle apple, skype is my 2nd choice or perhaps qq. Is there a simple way to get through on this without too many false choices and dashed hopes? And when is the holy grail going to arise and be able to handle 3/4/5 people in conference in real time?

Forums > Travel Yunnan > What to do in Mile 弥勒, Yunnan
I used to live in Wenshan and I traveled a lot through Mile a lot to get to Kunming. The scenery is very nice between Mile and Kaiyuan. I think it is one of the most beautiful areas in eastern Yunnan. Lots of rolling hills and trees and a nice scenic river running through it.

Hiking in Lijiang: Dry River Valley
Posted byI've taken this path, well worth checking out if you go to Lijiang. It's a long walk to the trailhead, or use a 4 wheel drive to get there. But do it if you have the chance, everybody likes the spiritual quality of the mountains.
Allez! The Tour de France comes to Yunnan
Posted by115 kilometers is a bit short, usually stages for the Tour de France run around 180 to 200 kilometers. But it would be worthwhile (expense-wise) to have a chance to ride a bike around Yuxi without being hassled by traffic, which is by far the most unpleasant part of riding a bike.

A tale of countryside drinking in Yunnan, or How I killed all the fish
Posted byIt's good to be open minded and friendly, but the drinking was excessive.
Exploring Yunnan's Wenshan Prefecture in the 1990s
Posted byI lived in Wenshan for a year 2009-2010: Local minority tribes would gather at the town center and play cards, play music, dance, and sell various herbs and vegetables every night. Now living in Lijiang, that no longer happens, it just seemed life was more public then, now people are less inclined to socialize in public.
