The superlatives related to China-based resources are a response to the large amounts of negative press regarding China.

In regards to Chinese employees, the press typically runs something like this. “They’re unreliable and untrustworthy.” “They don’t do a very good job.” “They don’t think outside the box.” All of which I have found untrue.

Of course, the ever present “They’re stealing our jobs,” that typically comes from unemployed people that aren’t really stand outs in their field is true if you hold that assumption that one person deserves a higher standard of living than another similarly qualified person simply on the basis of their country of citizenship or place of residence. Well paying jobs are not a birthright. You need to present a compelling value proposition.

The Unicom superlative is a response to the constant complaints about iPhone on AT&T one reads in US-based tech press. iPhone on Unicom is amazing. They built the world’s largest 3.5 HSPA WCDMA network over a period of months. Coverage is ubiquitous including indoor, in-elevator and underground coverage. In the Pearl River Delta (South China), sustained 4+ megabit real world download speeds are common with 2+ megabit common elsewhere in the country. Calls and data also work fine at 200+ kph on trains.

By the way, iPhone tethering works. Did I mention plans start at US$14/month (no tax, no contract) including 200+ nationwide, no roaming minutes, free incoming calls and 300 megabytes data transfer? And they let foreigners with nothing more than a passport set up monthly, post-paid accounts with no hassle. Try doing that in the States or most EU countries if you’re not a national or at least a resident.

I’ve used Pay4Bugs on my websites. It works as advertised — The users find bugs and they find them quickly! Typically they find issues with spelling, the occasional broken link or missing image, or a CSS layout issue… but I’ll even occasionally get an SEO recommendation which is awesome too.

I highly encourage any developer who distributes applications or creates web pages to try P4B. You set your own price so it’s cheap, and Larry and the gang are ultra-quick with support responses.
