Google 'sister' launches in China


Source: BBC
Location:

A new search engine and social network provider called Goojje has appeared online in China. The site contains very similar branding to Google, and the final syllable "jje" sounds similar to the Mandarin word for older sister (jiejie). Goojje's search results appear to be filtered for sensitive content in accordance with Chinese regulations. Google has recently objected to those restrictions, but the new site appears to be urging it to remain in China.
