The sooner you use the new name the faster the old entries will disappear.

I wouldn't worry about Google kicking you out over having too many domain names - they're much friendlier than Paypal.

HOPE you’re right :wink:, then we’ll give us a new name soon.

A new book on the market and noteworthy:

Graded Chinese Reader 1 - 汉语分级阅读1

ISBN 978-7-80200-374-3

Sinolingua

rmb 42.00

Published probably May 2007

http://www.amazon.cn/detail/product.asp?prodid=bkbk727743

6 short stories. Total 240 pages. Simplified Chinese with Pinyin. Some terms are explained in English. With MP3 CD. Speaker in the CD is the same lady as on JianDanDeNanti, with a nice voice. I haven't really read much into it but looks not too difficult.

There is also a #2

We just found these books and added them to our site, it’s said by the content that they’re suitable to beginners with “300词级”, is that so?

Wrong, wrong, wrong!

Great! Now I have new reading material. :mrgreen:

I've been trying to hang with the book of the month club, but it seems I can't go one sentence without having to lookup a word and then becoming confused about what is being said. :oops:

Try 哆啦A梦 (Doraemon) comic books. They can be found in any major bookstore, are fun to read, and relatively simple. I personally cannot stand these contrived or 'simplified' readers! Also, move on to real books (e.g. 小王子/The little prince) quickly and read them in something like Wenlin - it's not as hard as you'd think and you learn a lot very quickly.
