新年快樂 (Xin nian kuai le!)
Year of the Ox! Thanks to bluebison for the cool sketch.
Skype's partner in Hong Kong, TOM-Skype, decorated the Skype logo today.
Skype's Taiwan partner, PChome, posted a holiday banner…
and a holiday promotion.
I love PChome's dressing up of the Chinese character for "ox" with horns and black/white patches. See the ox character in 24 typefaces.
On a more serious note, Ms. Cristy Li blogged a series of moving photos she took last week from Sichuan of people preparing for the Spring Festival.

Very cute. Was the RED character added to the TOM-Skype logo drawn with the BLOOD of the Skype users who were betrayed by Skype and their Chinese partner?
