About Asia Focus

  • In response to the great need for foresight about Asia, IFTF has launched the Asia Focus Program. Asia Focus research topics are large-scale, under-explored areas from which unexpected futures will emerge. It is part of IFTF's flagship program, the Ten-Year Forecast Program, which provides a broad scan of the environment and is a leading source of foresight for a vangard of business, government, and nonprofit organizations.

Censorship veil lifted up some more

Danwei reports that Blogspot and Blog City have been unblocked in Beijing. (Reader Andy Yates reports that they are also accessible from Xiamen.)

This follows the unblocking of Google.com that occured about two months back.
