Sina Weibo is a Chinese social network that is a mix of Twitter and Facebook. After the riots in China in 2009, the government decided to prohibit access to all social networks that are created outside the country. So, since that time, residents of the Celestial Empire have no access to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and other popular foreign sources.
As a result, the local company Sina created its own social network called Weibo, which means “a microblog” in Chinese. It took them a bit more than one month to cope with that.
The main functions offered by this social network are:
- texting with other users;
- publishing posts like on Twitter;
- reposting and commenting on posts;
- sharing and adding media to posts.
When you start using it, you’ll definitely notice that it has similar features to Facebook and Twitter.
If you have problems with SMS activation when registering on this service, you can buy a virtual number for Weibo sign up without phone number for 20 cents.
