Tencent[2] Weibo was a social networking platform that fostered online communication and content sharing among users. Its features allowed users to share photos, videos, and text posts with a limit of 140 characters, akin to Twitter[3]. The platform was initially accessible solely to QQ users and required manual registration. It possessed a unique reposting function and encouraged users to initiate new topics. Moreover, Tencent Weibo provided an open platform for developers, facilitating the creation and spread of applications. Despite its popularity, with 469 million registered users in the second quarter of 2012, the platform was announced to shut down in September 2020. It was known for unique terms such as ‘Listen,’ ‘Broadcast,’ and ‘Rebroadcast.’ Tencent Weibo also served as a stratégie de marketing[1] against competitors and was used by some Chinese celebrities.
Tencent Weibo was a Chinese microblogging (weibo) website launched by Tencent in April 2010, and was shut down on September 28, 2020. Users could broadcast a message including 140 Chinese characters at most through the web, SMS or smartphone.
