Should we care about China?

I shared a link that a friend pointed to early today from a site about China

One man took offense and started sending me messages telling me I was wrong. I asked for a link to better facts and was told I should have researched the article before the retweet.

That appeared odd to me. I read articles and post to learn new things. I don't accept them as indisputable facts, but I think my opinion on what I find interesting is my own decision, and cant believe one would think that I should become an investigative reporter to share what I READ.

For the record. Everything here, and most everything I write is MY THOUGHTS. If I site a source, it is almost always unverified. I would never think to pass on something that I didn't think was true, but I do hope my network values my choices while judging for themselves.

What I should have told @Pew115 was "If you don't like what I tweet, just unfollow me"

But, that's not me. I continued to respond as best I could in 140 characters. Wondering how his allegations could be taken serious without even one URL.

HINT: That "one URL" on Twitter could be HIS BLOG.. he's welcome to say what he pleases and if it fits my criteria above (fairy broad, eh?) then I would have most likely shared it with my followers.

I next was told that I was "testy" (that happens.. I won't dispute it) and that he knew all this because he lived in China.

Hmmm.. He just told me that news is suppressed, but he knows all the facts :)

Next came a barrage of articles with what I thought was some pretty good opinions and some facts that expanded what I know about charity in China. (which is not much)

He told me he did all this to help me. I thanked him on Twitter and will say it again here. THANKS.. I DO need to care about China.

Which made the tweet below strike me as the oddest thing I've seen all day.

I do care about places I don't live. Especially China. Should I?

Needless to say, the news came as a disappointment to John Muleta, CEO of M2Z.

"The FCC's decision to delay the use of this valuable spectrum forgoes the consumer welfare and economic stimulus that would result from putting new spectrum into the marketplace," Muleta declared in a reaction statement.

"A new nationwide broadband entrant that provided a free broadband service would have created tens of thousands of direct and indirect jobs throughout the country," he added, "while giving all Americans an equal opportunity to participate in the digital economy. Despite the spectrum crisis facing the U.S. as documented by the FCC's National Broadband Plan, the AWS-3 spectrum will continue to lie fallow providing no economic value to American consumers."

Twitter users are twice as like to post a comment, 3 times more likely to upload a photo.

This now dated (4 months today is "dated") study shows the fast grow of us sharing online.

Bear in mind these number were before AMPLIFY.. which has taken my sharing to new heights
