Christmas gifts and a few holiday updates
Merry Christmas!SRI has a couple of gifts for all of our loyal readers!First, SRI makes a fantastic calendar every year from photos that we’ve taken in China and Southeast Asia over the past year of our personal and business travels. If you’d like a copy, you can request one by email and we’ll mail it out to you. It’s free if you’ve got an address in China but international shipping is on your own dime if you’re not in China, says Scrooge. I’ll be in Shanghai passing out free calendars at the Global Sources Expo on the 13th (New Buyers Seminar) and standing on a street corner passing them out in exchange for dinner on the 14th! Email me with your address at david at silkroadintl dot net if you want one.Second, we’ve taken the photos from the past three years of calendars and built a screen saver. It’s about 7MB and free to download from our home page or the column on the left (“Free SRI Photo Screen Saver”—yea, that link). Click here for an instant download. It works great with Windows, but we’ve had some problems with Mac. I too have a Mac, so I understand the frustration. But, hey! It’s free, so whatcha gonna do?! When it gets fixed I’ll let the Mac users know.Now for a couple of business related issues.David will be speaking at the New Buyers Seminar at the Global Sources trade show in Shanghai this Thursday. The event is in the Shanghai Pudong New International Exhibition Center and starts at 1pm.Due to (positive) peer pressure from Dan at China Law Blog, we are updating the blog this month--yes, consider it another Christmas present to you from us. Look for the changes in the next couple of weeks!Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Ho Ho Ho.DD
