The event went quite well. Even before, the Chinese government delayed the requirement for all computers sold after July 1 to install this spyware, green dam youth escort.

The party started at 9 AM on July 1 with a mass amount of journalists interviewing Ai Weiwei. Various summer fun activities continued all day. Matt, Phil, Yang Tao, and I brought out the speakers after lunch and began mixing it up until the night. Massive fun! Great connections and drinking all around.
