- RcouF1uZ4gsC 10y agoAre you comparing English searches or Mandarin searches?
- Canada 10y agoBoth.
- justicezyx 10y agoBaidu is 50B+ Alibaba is 200B+ Tecent is 200B+ Baidu is continuously becoming irrelevant in the new wave of Internet economy. That, is the result of competition. I am not surprised that Baidu becomes next Yahoo in 5-10 years.
- dasil003 10y agoTrue, but WeChat is way better than any social feature/app Google has, and it has certain innovations beyond what Facebook, Snapchat or any other major social network have. There is definitely true innovation coming out of China, and it's easy to see how the GFW has enabled a lot of that innovation, even if it's a bit indirect or confused at times.
- Canada 10y agoPlease excuse me for being negative, but I hate WeChat. To a lesser extent I have to use LINE in parts of SE Asia, and it's crap too. I only use them because I have no choice. I don't want to be socially excluded. The positive thing I have to say about them is that the fact they use usernames instead of phone numbers make it feel like you're just making a casual connection, so everyone is more willing to connect with strangers.
