5 years in China now: WeChat is my primary connection online. I check email once every 2-3 days, Facebook once every few months and usually just to turn off notifications that never seem to actually stay off. WeChat allows me to pay my utility bills, Call taxis, buy a soda, send out promotions for events, publish my photos, stalk friends, find movie tickets and reserve seats, buy a box of avocadoes, find a group of expectant mothers, and the list goes on and on. This is the social network that Chinese people use and folks in the West don't get how pervasive it is.
