  • 56minus1 takes a look at Shanghai's first ever wooden roller coaster. It'll be built over in Happy Valley at Sheshan, which ought to open some time in July. [56minus1]
  • Also coming in mid-July: regular flights between Taiwan and China! The first direct flight ever, as we know, was through Shanghai. [Reuters]
  • We just reviewed the Barbie store cafe. Thank goodness we kinda sorta liked it because there might be three other David Laris-Barbie projects opening in the near future. [@BarbieZone]
  • Andrea Sachs gives Shanghai and the countdown to the World Expo a very detailed one over. [Washington Post]
  • There was a job fair for disabled college graduates in the city yesterday. Sadly, there are apparently very few jobs for disabled college graduates. [Shanghai Daily]
