Happy Chinese New Years!

I was going to do another post about internet censorship today but let's have a more positive post. I'll save the activism for later. For those of you who are still keen, our next big targets are ACTA and CPIP. If our internet should be censored one day there are alternatives that people are working on. The most promising one I've seen so far is something called a meshnet

More as this develops.

But yes, for those unaware, today is the first day of the Lunar Calender. I know a bunch of people, including my Father, who took the day off. I wasn't as lucky and still had classes. :(

Also it's the year of the Dragon.

So I expect to be able to spend more time with family within the next few weeks. Lots of dinners and what not. We also got some relatives flying in from the other side of the country as well so that's always nice.

But I'm certain most of you are familiar with the red pockets that are handed out at Chinese New Years. Basically, all the kids (doesn't matter that I'm over 20, I still count as a "kid") get these little red envelopes with money from parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc. etc..

Money....

So I'm cutting this post short due to it being a holiday. I'll see you guys on Thursday.
