I thought "where do you get off" was a pretty clever, idiomatic translation, personally. For Americans, as long as you precede the phrase "get off" with "where do you," the mind stays well clear of the gutter. :)

I can't replicate this problem. Have you cleared your cache and reloaded?
If that doesn't work, what's your OS, your browser, and the specific lesson?
(Feel free to e-mail or IM me.)

Now you're getting into the office politics! :)
And yes, that is what KPI stands for...

Perhaps we're viewing the series through Wang's own deluded mind? (We'll try to resist the urge to go totally Mulholland Drive on you...)

Traditional support for the Grammar Guide sample sentences is coming. Before that, though, we'll be releasing the new exercises and the modular lesson component support which I wrote about recently in a blog post.

There is still a bit of an issue with the tag data. It's not that the search isn't working; in many cases it's that there's a problem with the tag data itself. We're tackling that issue this week.
The community tagging is a cool idea. I recommend adding it to ChinesePod UserVoice!

By "other issues" I do indeed mean voltage and frequency differences. Thanks for the hair dryer example.
