Gary Wang with whom I founded Toodou.com, had an interview with the New York Times earlier this week about our site and podcasting in China in general. Today it was published. Because it is premium content, you cannot view it at the NYT site without a subscription, but we put the article online here.
It seems that our servers are not able to handle the sudden increase in traffic, so if the link is not working try it again tomorrow…
I am a Dutch entrepreneur in Shanghai who has lived and worked over 12 years in China. Co-founder of among others Tudou.com and unitedstyles.com, advisor to Spil Games for which I set up and led the Asian operation (2006-2011), and angel investor in Chinese Internet and tech start-ups. Married to Grace, with whom I have a son (Scott) and a daughter (Elaine). These are my personal views and do not necessarily represent the companies I am involved with.
