Kwun, correct me if I am wrong : this site is hosted out of Florida. It is all run by Asian Americans. You generate revenues through advertisements but it is not fully there yet. With the membership (once it gets to thousands), you will go IPO coz you have the numbers to show that people genuinely come into your website.

Once up (and that is the members are comfortable), you will offer membership fees (small ones at first :) ). But I guess that will depend on the advertisements that you get. You want to be the 'GATEWAY TO BADMINTON' or the badminton 'FACEBOOK'.

Random comments on kwun and kwun's news..

- oh about the dinner... HuangKwokHau and I had dinner with Hendrawan and SDK at a Chinese restaurant. Hendrawan and SDK are both very friendly. Hendrawan's English is pretty good! SDK surprising didn't eat that much, i thought he would need to eat more as he will be burning a lot of energy.

it is so much more fun to be watching badminton than taking photos of badminton. the crowd are cheering at the top of their throat and all i can see is a little viewfinder. a few other photojournalists are just sitting there watching instead of doing work.
 
This is..

Btw, you should take pics of the crowd "cheering at the top of their throat, lung & tongue"..We want to see the emotions of the crowd..:D;):cool:

That is so so so true.
Watching the event live is just incomparable. Nothing beats that experience.
You even find yourself cheering madly for your favorite player :):)
 
2 days of sitting down and taking photos is starting to take its toll. today i developed a really annoying headache on one side of my head. i am going to take a rest tonight and will post some pics when i get to it tomorrow.

Who say taking photos is easy? heheh.. get well soon mate. Relax and put some cold cucumber on your eyes. Take it easy.
 
i wonder if anybody noticed that during the Choong/Lee and Chia/Chung match, there was a long delay at around 4-3 on the first game. the umpire really dozed off that match. firstly he got the TPE/MAS names mixed up, then later on he got their scores mixed up. after nearly 5 mins of back and forth plus the interference of the tournament referee, he finally got the scores and names correctly and the match could proceed.
 
the Chinese crowd is really very sporting. they will cheer for any good rallies regardless of where the players are from. you will hear whole stadium cheering and clapping when they see a long a hard fought rally. of course, in times when Chinese are behind they will always goes for the JIA YOU! routine but that's very understandable.
