- Weibo Diplomacy
- What is weibo? Unfortunately it has 3 distinct but related meanings in ChineseTwitter, Facebook, youtube etc are all blocked in china2009 social media clones begin to appearEnd of 2010 “weibo” emerges as the dominant format, dislodgingfacebook clonesNote that 140 chinese characters is a lot of information. More like 75 words in English.
- QQ still retains market lead among teens and small town usersQQ may be making a comeback because of its new “weixin” format. The social media market in China is moving as fast as in the rest of the world. Weibo’s dominance is only 2 years old – its entirely possible that in 2 years it will be eclipsed by another format like weixin or something that we haven’t yet heard of. It is impossible to rest in this environment.
- What does a tweet or a “weibo” look like? Different from twitter. Much richer in content. Constantly telling people not to cram too much into a tweet. One idea. This is a tweet about a Canadian designer/tinkerer who lives in Beijing. This is a tweet about his quirky invention and include a video of it. The text refers to his participation in the Beijing Design exhibition. Retweets give you a clear idea of how interesting people found the content. Comments are an indcation of stronger opinions, usually postitive, but can be negative of course.

- The biggest weibos are similar in content to the biggest twitter feeds. However, over the past 18 months the “serious side” of weibo has become increasingly prominent. Many sites push social and political limits
- Weibo posts have real-world impact. They draw public attention to problems, and forcing changesIt is still a means to chitchat, but has also evolved into a tool for breaking and discussing significant news stories in ChinaWeibo challenges the state’s narrative of eventsHere is a case study.On July 23 2011 the Wenzhou Train Derailment Accident caused at least 39 deaths and 192 injuries. One of the first sources of information was a Sina Weibo tweet from a blogger claiming to be a survivor, which was re-tweeted 100,000 times in 10 hours. The State Railway Authority was not forthcoming with information at first, but their hand was forced by bloggers who openly discussed the incident online.
- US Embassy microblog, the giant of Embassy weibos. This front page is obviously aimed at giving the Embassy, literally and figuratively, a human face.
