Developed by Aladdin Infotech, Edushi (lit. E-Metropolis in Chinese) is a website which provides 3D maps of the main cities in China. The main page is in Chinese, but there’s a few places with English version as well, Hong Kong for example.

Looks cool, Sim City (PC game) fans will like it for sure. Unfortunately it doesn’t provide much advantage over 2D maps; and it’s probably easier to navigate the traditional two dimensional maps.

Rumours are flying around that Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi and billionaire boyfriend Vivi Nevo are separated for around two months.
Rumours of their separation began in April when it was revealed that the couple has delayed their August wedding indefinitely, with Ziyi’s working schedule cited as the major reason.
The couple had kept a high profile relationship since seeing each other in 2007, but was not spotted together in public events for the past few months while Ziyi was busy filming her latest film Sophie Revenge.
In the past Vivi Nevo would pay Ziyi some visits even if she was working, but not the case here. It’s also said that he is not attending the movie premier (next week if not mistaken), which if true could be a huge indicator of their relationship.
Some netizens are speculating that the saga is a disguised promotion for the new movie, but I think Zhang Ziyi is famous enough to not need this stuff for publicity.
Rumours will remain as rumours until proven; but it’s rare that tabloids are pounding on the same old news for months without having decent sources to fuel their speculations… and quite often these rumours would turn factual in the end.
[update] Zhang has denied the rumour on the press screening on July 9.
