Fucked up! Baidu should never be used to search English pages. Even you search English glossary, it will return some unrelated low quality Chinese webs. And in many professional sections, you can only find stupid shallow scraped content in Chinese even with google. When you have to search in English, Bing is the most convenient one left. The problem is I have to speak to myself loudly each time I search in Bing: "is Bing retarded!?" Maybe Bing is trying it's best to be difference from G. Then when G gets most of right results, Bing sucks so hard by bringing tons of heavily SEOed craps.
I use gmail, adsense, google calendar daily, and expecting to use facebook, twitter and other SM daily. I use 3 to 4 methods to get through GFW, none of them can guarantee a stable access. The fuckest thing is I waste 1/3 of my working time only because of the blocking. (Really, when you can’t get through or the speed is too slow, you just don’t know where you’ve surfed to and what you’ve being read for hours).
