Baidu | blog | search Engine | chinese

Webmaster Introduction:

Chen School, the net name "school", male, 23 years old, Shantou, Guangdong, now enrolled in Guangzhou Guangdong Business School International Economics and trade major senior students. Love computer since childhood, and several like-minded friends in 2005 to develop blog search engine program.

Site profile:

September 2005, Chen School and his team after six months of development of Chinese blog Search engine--China guest (

Not the usual way.

"No ordinary Way" This is a slogan, but I think he is a good summary of the 80 generation of new generation of young people's characteristics, Maverick dare to dare to do. Chen School is such a 80 generation.
"It was an accident when I was a Chinese guest," he said. I like browsing blogs (blog) very much. Read their life, their work, when they look at the words written by others attentively. Often you have a feeling of empathy. The emergence of a blog is a network of progress, he restored the network to the civilian population-I think so. "said Chen Chong.
With this popular culture, everyone began to blog, blog information grew rapidly, but there is no one can effectively search the blog tool, the blog is facing the crisis of information flooding. Chen School and other netizens have been looking forward to such as Baidu or Google's search engine can launch a search tool for the blog, but wait for these years, has not been looking forward to.
Later, Chen School in Browse foreign websites, found Technorati, a foreign Professional search blog tool, but unfortunately it has Chinese search function, but it is not able to search Chinese blog. So Chen is considering whether it is possible to develop a search engine for Chinese blogs on its own.

"At that time, I was shocked by this idea--I am not majoring in computer science, and the computer is just a hobby and crazy from teenagers." Although the university self-study some ASP and Java language, but the compilation of search engines for a computer professionals is a difficult thing, for me, even more impossible. "But there are challenges to have opportunities, always follow others will not be successful, Chen School is going to take a road of their own, with sweat to experience success."

It's going to take a few hundred minutes.

With the idea, the determination, Chen School will pay the action.
"I am chaoshan people, I inherited the Chaoshan people hard-working brave and dare to say dare to do the character." "However, it is really stressful for Chen to face such a project," he said. The first to face the search engine this crab, Chen school do not know where to begin. So the library, the online Professional forum, the programmer's home and so became Chen Chong every day after school compulsory homework. The junior course is very tired, but think about the future success of Joy, Chen school bite teeth also came over.

Chen School in the Technical forum to post a crazy, eager to get all the knowledge he needs. In the Forum study and posting days, he met a lot of friends, friends for Chen School FAQ, also help him find relevant information. Gradually some of the Forum's friends became his good friends, but when Chen Chong told them that their goal of struggle, friends have opened their mouths--in the face of such a large company such as Google have not yet dabbled in the field, he a hair-head kid would dare to go it alone?
Perhaps Chen School's efforts and beliefs infected them, maybe they also have the same dream with Chen School, some friends began to hope and Chen Chong together struggle. Now, Chen has a 5-person research and development team, a university teacher, and a professional programmer of network companies ... Each of their 5 members in charge of a booth, sometimes in order to complete a function of debugging, we a few sleepless nights to work together for the common goal ... In the words of Chen School, "I asked my team and me to invest in it."
"Time is not negative" after six months of efforts, the customer finally in September, although still in the testing phase, but 4.5 million blog data synchronization, and the increase of hundreds of thousands of data per day, as well as over million search requests ... All this bodes well for Chen Chong's imminent success.

At present, we have applied for registration of China Technology Information Co., Ltd., want to let the guests in a birth in the business under the operation of development. We have made a profitable program for the Chinese, but also have a profitable project, but the lack of start-up funds, now we are actively contacting venture capitalists.

A wood: At present, Google and Baidu are also developing their blog search tools, how are you prepared to face the upcoming competition?
