Mu Zimei, Chinese sex blogger
Sex blogging in China. "Mu Zimei is both reviled and admired, but she is not ignored. The country's most popular internet site, Sina.com, credits her with attracting 10 million daily visitors. Another site, Sohu.com, says Mu Zimei is the name most often typed into its internet search engine, surpassing one occasional runner-up, Mao Zedong. Her celebrity - which exploded when she posted an explicit online account of her tryst with a Chinese rock star - first seemed to baffle government censors but has now drawn a familiar response. Her forthcoming book was banned this week. She has quit her magazine columnist job and halted her blog, or online diary."
