Hi everyone. Sorry there have not been some new posts recently because I have been very sick. I am getting better now and will post more soon.
I recently receive this email from Helen who wrote about chinaSMACK in That’s Shanghai last year about the 2009 Best of Shanghai :
Hi Fauna
I hope you’re well.
Just wanted to drop you a line to tell you we are hosting an awards ceremony celebrating the best of Shanghai in June this year. All our categories are reader-voted and we have a Best of the Web section that ChinaSmack has been nominated for (section 4).
