Spring Festival celebrations were given a distinctly high-tech update by millions of young Internet users in China this week. "Compared to the traditional way, celebrating Spring Festival on the Internet is more exciting," said Wei Jianhui, 23, who spent New Year's Eve chatting with dozens of friends online. Wei didn't watch the New Year's Day television gala, which attracted an estimated audience of more than 1 billion people last Sunday evening. Instead, Wei, who lives in Nan Chang, spent New Year's Eve decorating his blog with red lanterns and firecrackers. "When they visit my blog, my friends will see my New Year's greetings," said Wei. Wei said more than 30 of his friends spent New Year's Eve chatting on the Internet. Many young people in Nanchang celebrated Chinese New Year in the same way. The manager of Jingying Internet Cafe said all of its 300 computers were occupied on New Year's Eve. Four other Internet cafes in the area were also full. 双语资讯
