    It's become increasingly popular outside of China.  You can download the English version from the Apps Store on your iphone; it's called WeChat.

    你看起来像他. Is that how you say, "You look like him," or "You resemble him?"

    二， 饿， and 日。 那 是 怎么说？ Can someone clarify for me how they are supposed to be pronounced? Oops, not the response I was looking for. Let me rephrase the question. The er, e, and ri sound in chinese all sound the same to me, probably because i'm pronouncing it wrong. Can someone give me an example of how each of these words is suppose to sound like using an English word as an example, i.e., er= the "re" sound as in the word "tire"

    If you want to do the tourist thingy, I suggest you check out Pier39/Fisherman's Wharf, The Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, and maybe Ocean Beach/The Cliff House. If you're more into meeting other Chinese/Asian people, then you can check out Chinatown, the Richmond District(Clement St.), or the Sunset District(Irving St, Noriega St).  Those areas are heavily populated by Asians, and is where you can find the most Chinese/Asian shops, restaurants, etc...  Additionally, Milpitas and the surrounding areas, about 40minutes southeast of SF, had a large Taiwanese population.  Let me know what you're looking for, and I can point you in the right direction.

    I used Facetime with the free wifi from the hotel on my last trip to Vietnam. I also brought an old phone and purchased a sim card in VN for making local calls. 400k VND($20 USD) worth of minutes lasted me about 3 weeks. My friend decided to just use his iphone for making all his calls, ended up paying $400+ in roaming charges. HAHAHA.
