Google gets preliminary approval to serve news in China

Google has been working hard the past few years to gain the respect of the Chinese government. It looks like that hard work has started to pay off with a recent license they have partially obtained to serve content to the second largest internet market in the world.

What does this mean exactly? It means that first steps have been made in a preliminary approval to potentially supply news to China.

There are still certain procedures which Google has to follow in order to get a full license and final approval; nonetheless Google is slowly on the move to being seen as a viable resource for the Chinese market. There has been no word as of yet as to the steps that Google must make in order to obtain a full license to serve the news content.
