Summary | Many Chinese people are making a living off of livestreaming their daily lives. They share their thoughts with huge audiences on apps that allow for live streaming or just show themselves while eating their meals or respond to comments or give advice. One of the most successful of these personalities is a China-based American who reports of her experience in China from the perspective of an American. Despite great efforts by the Chinese government to censor internet content, this new entertainment genre is growing quickly in China.

WhatsApp developer Jan Koum is not worried about profits – he states that their number one goal is to recruit more WhatsApp users and the opportunity to profit would establish itself later on. WhatsApp is looking to expand its services to video communication and communication with businesses.
