  weibo is incredible and incredibly popular, like twitter, only 140 characters is up to 100 words, so you can say a lot more. you can also post pictures.

  now the government can't cover things up any more. a recent train crash that was covered up, was public knowledge to millions of people within a few hours. government officials have been fired (or worse). it's changed the country massively.

  and much the same as twitter and facebook, 90% of the content is about what people are eating, memes, and pets. (though much much less about getting drunk)
