Counting with your hands in Chinese

I didn't know before I came to China that the Chinese have a different method of hand-counting than the rest of the world. Because of this I bought the wrong kind of dumplings once, but that's another uninteresting story.
They do it all on one hand, which I like a lot better- it's more convenient. To see it, click on this link, or the wikipedia screenshot below.
