how can you not be aware of Yandex?

Perhaps he is not a web oriented professional, or he does not give a shit about the rest of the world and ignores everything outside the anglobubble.

Why would anyone be aware of Yandex unless they live in Russia? Even here, I mostly use Google.

Well, very few members of HN community actually uses Sina Weibo, but we're aware of it, aren't we?

I'm personally aware of Yandex because they have one of the most aggressive search crawlers on the entire internet, judging from our Apache logs.
