WOW: We Observe the World is Launched

Folks, WOW: We Observe the World is UP! It is a modest launch--we had to do a complete redesign in the last 48 hours--but we are online with a combination blog and news magazine written entirely by journalism majors at the Beijing Foreign Studies University, somewhat of a first for a mainland Chinese university.

We have been blessed with advance enthusiasm for the endeavor in the Chinese Blogoshere and even in certain sectors of mainstream journalism; I can only hope that in time WOW will live up to the expectations that a trail-blazer shoulders for the asking.

Please, come and visit with us as we find our way.

WOW: We Observe the World is where you will find us.

Congratulations, Joseph! Just had a quick glance at WOW, and it's looking pretty good so far. Actually, I'm really impressed with the quality of the writing I've seen so far- if only the students I taught back when I was at universities could have written that well, I would have been a very happy man.

Dear Chris,

Thank you for the very kind words of support. Yes, I do have outstanding students; this exercise in online journalism will help them develop their writing skills further yet.

All the very best,

Joseph
