I hate to call Baidu a 'chinese knock off', but in the purest sense of the word it is. They simply take Western internet phenomenons; Street Maps, Open collaborative encyclopedia, crawler based search engine, even a TV/youtube service which I've used to watch star trek (TNG torrents post season 6-7 get very slow and netflix didn't exist at the time). And copy their feature sets, even stealing whole american templates. Last time I used Baidu's video service they literally stole their layout and color scheme from pornhub down to ad placement and video selection.
