Douban

In the one hand, we benefit from the booming of technology, in the other hand, too much information bothers our decisions. A friend of mine told me a good idea of getting news from outside.  The method is that do not use or read news, listen to your friends’ talking, then you got news that matters you. Of course, if everyone uses this method, there will be no news. In fact, it does help me a lot in the first time.  

In real life, we want information other than news, but also evaluation of books, movies and music. Then I remember an old app, douban.

 

It was designed by Bo Yang in a hutong named Douban in Beijing. This is a combination of music, film and books that can share comments with others. The calculation of douban would know your favorites after you add or view films and articles. Douban would send you notification of “douban guess you like”. Basically, it would attract people that have same tastes. They also held activities in real life. Network of groups under line generates much more than what individuals expected. This is an online community that created with python. It is the first website that using python as coding language. " it is a finding that based on interests of life." said as "abei" - the nick name of Bo yang. 

At the beginning of Douban, it is only a website that let users share comments or mark books that they did not read and want to exchange with others, but nowadays Douban films become the most authority evaluation system in China. It could even direct the market of Movies.  Then let us explore more in film evaluation. The system of Douban are supported by users, so the evaluation of music are all from real people, there would have no corporations that control the result. So when a movie got score that above 8, it means this is a pretty good one, and when it got points over 8.5, it means this is one deserve your time and wonderful one. 

movies that translate into Chinese or made in China.
