Fwd: China services list for Ubiquity

[Jono]

Hello,
Bin Sun from Mozilla China sends me this list of the most popular
websites/services in the Chinese market. We should probably look into
making some of these into Ubiquity commands when we localize for
China.

(Also a very popular music search: http://mp3.baidu.com/)

Hi Jono:
As we talked, we've list the local service here.

ebay:   taobao.com
amazon: amazon.cn dangdang.com 360buy.com (for the first 2 ones,most
of the Chinese users use them to buy books only)
yelp:   dianping.com.cn fantong.com koubei.com aibang.com
twitter: fanfou.com jiwai.de
maps:   map.baidu.com map.sogou.com map.google.cn (but almost of the
services use the data from mapabc.com mapbar.com)
facebook: kaixin001.com xiaonei.com
flickr: yupoo.com bababian.com photo.163.com
youtube: youku.com tudou.com
last.fm: yobo.com http://music.sina.com.cn/yueku/
search: baidu.com google.com
delicious: uhm....

There is also another very famous web 2.0 site called douban.com (豆瓣)，
I don't know there is a similar one in US, but worth we to add it.

May be some of the website above don't have open API, u can contact
me, then I will try to talk with them ,I think they will be very happy
to be embedded into Ubiquity.

Will drop by u and talk about the details.

In China, in certain area,may be there are 2 or 3 companies have the
similar market share, so for every kind of service, I list all of the
popular ones.

Thanks Bin! We'll definitely want to explore these services and add
them into Ubiquity. Many of our locale-specific commands are coming
from the community so far, though, so the first step would be to check
whether Ubiquity commands for any of these services already exist.

I'd also love to get support reviewing the Chinese parser settings and
getting the built-in commands localized... *nudge nudge* ;)
