Looks like Google is busy trying to build a presence in everything that it can lay its hands on in the Chinese market.

Thesedays everybody wants a share of the Chinese pie, but Google isn’t getting the biggest slice like it does in the US in search.

Indeed–funnythat in that bastion of intellectual property theft (sorry, basically true) Google chooses the super-pro-IP approach.

Being in Greater China, I’m not so sure how China’s long literary tradition will make book search more important.

In China, where copyright laws are essentially “for reference only”, unauthorized books are everywhere. They’re actually pretty “mainstream”. Depending on how you look at this, Google’s Book Search may or may not help legal book publishers. Perhaps they view the Google partnership as a strategy to fight back piracy once and for all.

Marshall - there have been some interesting articles about China on Techcrunch. Keep up the good work!
