Message from Tudou to Members Potatoes

ScreenSnapz.gif

I've been concerned about Chinese video sharing site Tudou.com since this morning and now it's 4 pm and the above text is still the only information on a blank page. I quaked that last weeks rumors over Toudu being ordered to shut down had come true.

But fears can be put to rest. The site is simply in maintenance.

Here's a (delightful) translation from Google's automated translator text tool.

Members potatoes:
In order to provide you with better service, we are expanding the relocation of the central room of potatoes.
March 14 at 0:00 to 24:00 at night, our services will be suspended for 24 hours.
March 15 at 0:00 new room on the relocation is complete, potatoes will be time to go home.

"Tudou" is Chinese for "potato"! Don't blame the translator, silly! ;)
