There's some good news coming out of China related to bloggers, despite the recent crackdown on Zhao Jing, aka Michael Anti, one of China�s edgiest journalistic bloggers who pushed the boundaries on what was acceptable. Rebecca Mackinnon along with Jeremy Goldkorn reported on his censure on their respective blogs.

While Silicon Valley VCs like Bessmer Venture Partners, granite Global Ventures, Mobius Venture Capital, and Softbank�s Asia Infrastructure Fund invested $10 million in the Chinese blog portal, Bokee, the government still maintains a tight restrictive policy on required registrations and that all blogs should remain under state control.

I have recently identified some excellent Chinese finance bloggers through Wayne Wong. These selected sites are only in Chinese.

For those who are fluent in Chinese, go to this VC blog or go to IDG's Gao Xiang.Wayne Wong thinks that Softbank is no longer interested in funding Chinese blogs. Nevertheless, Bokee is finding ways to monetize their bloggers. Last month, it reached an agreement with 99Bill to provide a secure and convenient online payment platform to serve blog users.

For an excellent finance and economics blog, there�s Wang Zhengpeng. Also, Mr. Zhangliang has interesting financial blog.

Finally, for those of us only reading English, go to Venture Capital Resource link for an excellent short list of VC blogs, hopefully CVN will be added soon to this august list.
