roddy Posted April 3, 2004 at 10:43 AM Report Posted April 3, 2004 at 10:43 AM I'm working on a new site, aiming to help Chinese learners find Chinese news articles to read without having to go through all the pop-ups and animations on Chinese news portals. It's still in development, but I'd be interested to know what people think of it so far. It's currently at h**p://www.chinese-forums.com/cnews but will be moving to its own domain before it launches officially. UPDATE: It has now moved, to Newsinchinese.com Comments and (gentle) criticism welcome. Roddy Quote

geek_frappa Posted April 3, 2004 at 04:19 PM Report Posted April 3, 2004 at 04:19 PM many instructors have been wondering how they can add news to the school curriculum without scaring the students... in an effort to help teachers use this website, i will show students how to copy and paste the chinese news stories into NJSTAR where they can convert Hanyu Pinyin and practice learning the characters... hopefully, they can use RoddyPortal.com as a startpage to all the sites they need for the lessons each day...
